Not funny in English, but it was in half german, half something else. Instead of Voegel am Strand, which would be correct, it actually said Voegeln am Strand, f...ing on the beach. Very popular poster amongst german-speaking tourists... And yeah, been doing a lot of bird watching in Eilat, but not up north. On my list of things to do.Rob Siemannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09106961534201033583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014444390969839620.post-62566748279989285592012-03-19T20:14:39.641+02:002012-03-19T20:14:39.641+02:00Shalom Dina.
