A week ago my parents returned from Israel. They went there on a vacation to visit our close friends. I wish I also could go with them, but I was in the middle of passing my exams. Besides, once (2 years ago, I think) I have already payed a visit there.
Actually, this country surprised me very much, in a good way. I mean I was amazed that such an oasis could be created in a desert. Their land was build of nothing...no water, poor soil, arid climate. The moment you step from the plane on the ground, you see so much verdure around, blooming verdure.! It is hard to believe that you are actually in a desert!
However behind this beauty is concealed a hard work. Only imagine that under each bush is placed a tubule, which supplies the plant with water.
And only thanks to this irrigation system it became possible to cultivate various plants.
So now we are getting closer to the topic (yep...no post without food!)
The only thing I wanted my parents to bring home was food. A lot of exotic food.!!
Fruits. Papaya...Litchi...Mango.
Dried fruits...dates, coconut, pineapple.
