While entering the Jerusalem Central Bus Station to catch my Egged bus to Tiberias (an easy drive of 2 1/2 hours), I was delighted to see double. Perfect for "Weekend Reflections," the meme started by James in Pennsylvania.
The two young men seemed to be having a good time in their harnesses, doubtless earning some good shekels for their work.
The huge Central Bus Station certainly has enough glass to keep fearless window washers busy..
Nice shots. I wouldn't want that job. I used to work on the 21st floor of a tall building and wondered how those guys could swing around that high in the air washing windows. Shudder.
ReplyDeleteNot a job for me but it sure makes for great refleection photos.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
A brave man. Indeed!
ReplyDeleteA good model too.
Very nice series. :)
Ai, getting the goose bumps of those heights. Am glad they like their work LOL
ReplyDelete...and great for SWZF as well. Well spotted nice shots.
ReplyDeleteYou've done it again! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteHello Dina...These are great photos even though I would be too terrified to get up there like that...Michelle
ReplyDelete...wonderful reflections. The city council where I live has opened the bus station 24 hours a day to give everyone relief from an unusual heatwave in November.Much to our shame, there are many who sleep rough on the streets. January and February are our normal hottest months in Australia.Dina, I enjoy your blog so much.Catching up today, I have followed your links with the Scots Hotel, enjoyed the beautiful photos of the boats on the Sea of Galilee, and looked in more depth at the Magdala Centre.Thank you for such an interesting site!
ReplyDeleteGreat reflections! I second all the comments above too :-)
ReplyDeleteNo fear and good money...
ReplyDeleteI like watching when they swing, they seem to have fun too.
Very nice shots.
ReplyDeleteShabbat Shalom & Aloha, Friend!

My friend's son quit university to clean windows, after 3 months. He quit and she was glad he decided tot go back to his studies.
ReplyDeleteWere't you fortunate to be there on window washing day! I especially love that 2nd shot! I don't want his job though!!!
ReplyDeleteIt amazes me that people are willing to do jobs like that. I'd be scared out of my mind.
ReplyDeleteIt also seems to have enough glass to keep you busy with reflections for weeks, so just keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteHello Dina, glad to be back on your blog again after some time! I skipped through your last posts and I loved best your skywatch pictures of the Sea of Galilee. They are MAGIC!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!
high altitude workers like them can earn more money than a teacher here, Dina. i like the second photo.
ReplyDeleteHi Dina, great reflections! Thank goodness people are willing to do all types of jobs! Imagine those windows dirty, ugh! Enjoy your weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteI always admired those brave windowcleaners high up in their harnesses! Shalom Dina! Wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteSorry, i could not find your critters (from link in cirtter meme), but the reflections was nice to see. Those high rise jobs are scary!
ReplyDeleteI starteled a deer! Look at that tail!
Nice shots, Dina. I am among those who probably would not want that job--that's why there is good money in it for those who are willing!
ReplyDeleteGreat reflection shots, Dina. I follow with most of the other commenters in saying it's not a job for me either.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a very daunting task.
ReplyDeleteHi Dina;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for comment. I look at your pictures every day when you post. You have many beautiful photos and interesting post.
We come to Israel 18 November.
We have a map and compass:-), then we shall certainly find the climbing sites. And we have contact with someone from the alpinegroup, we might be able to climb with:-)
Shalom
And.. and yes it is a church;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great opportunity to catch some wonderful reflection shots. But I don't think you could pay me enough to do that job, I would freeze solid on the ground. Kathy
ReplyDeleteVery nice! That's the sort of outdoor job one doesn't do in bad weather anyway...
