  3. I love that bench! The back is inteesting! Of course the statue is also! I think every town must have one of those. . . Ous is in a city park and it is a man dressed in suit and tie and hat, reading the local newspepaer . . . and a little girl is standing in front of him with a tulip from her basket for him.

  4. I must say you have found a bench with a real leaned-back attitude to life - so leaned that he stayed that way. I hope he treated you well :-)

    PS Thank you for the comment! I haven't decided yet quite what I'm going to do about benches and Fridays and so forth, but we'll see... :-)

    PPS I think it was real, old milk cans. Everything tasted the 50s and 60s. No one can do thinks like this better that the Britons.

  8. Dina, he looks a bit stiff, but a perfect gentleman to sit beside.

  9. Shalom everyone! Thanks for all your funny and nice comments.
    You can tell the guy is a tourist because his shirt is tucked in and he is wearing shoes instead of sandals. :)
    But where did his cell phone go?

    Shabbat shalom, Dina. Thanks for your visit!
    I used to know your area pretty well, used to work as a walking guide at the Jaffa Gate. And other places, 20 years ago. Nice to see Israel by an insider! Have a good shabbes!
