Watery Weds in Rosh HaNikra

rosh_hanikra_sea
It’s cold here in New Jersey, so I thought you would enjoy a trip in time back to last June when my family visited Rosh HaNikra in northern Israel.

It’s a fun place for a family to visit, but beware, there are rumors of a ghost bride.

And then we headed south, down the Mediterranean coast. You can see my daughter’s pink hat peering southward.

Lovely images Leora! I love the blue green water.
I'm sure this trip will be a highlight for a long long time.

My post is at my photoblog Carletta’s Captures.

Stunning views & a ghost bride to boot! That would be enough to get me there, to see if I could capture her on film! LoL!

Oh YES! This looks much warmer than New Jersey in February. ;-) It's a lovely place to sit and stare out at the expanse of sea, dream and take photos.

I would love to live along the coast. I would spend hours staring out at the ocean. Beautiful shots. =)

The sea is very inviting. I wouldn't mind a dip right now rather than the cold grey mist.

Oh that blue blue sea and the beautiful coast line. The first shot with the cliffs reminds me of a place here in Finland. It is in a small seaside resort called Hanko, the most southern point of the finnish mainland.
Eh, what are the rumours of ghost bridge?

On my Achziv post, I have a picture that's the reverse of your third picture. My picture looks north along the shore towards Rosh Hanikrah!

Shabbat Shalom.

I was thinking of your Achziv post when I put up these pics. I actually recommended the place to a friend who lives in Israel, because of your post! Here's your post, in case readers want to visit: http://ourshiputzim.blogspot.com/2008/12/achziv.html
