Yep, we are done here in Israel. The week is over. It is about 1 PM here. I have eaten lunch, the main meal of the day and am feeling pretty chipper.
So chipper that I plan to walk back out to the highway and turn up the mountain road for a 1/4 mile to a set of beehives. I want to take some close up pictures. Perhaps at 5 PM when the temperature starts to cool off.
There are beehives randomly (seemingly) placed everywhere. The are on metal flats of four so they can me moved by forklift if need be. I suspect they are here mostly for pollination of the many orchards around here.
There are orchards of olives, dates, bananas, and all sort of fruit trees. In season are plums and nectarines. Also green grapes are in season. Nectarines taste a bit different with whiter flesh and are blander.
The ride to the airport is still on though we have never met the lady. She will meet us at 6 AM. Pray for traveling mercies.
