christmas in miami

because atlanta can go a little overboard with holiday spirit, my parents and i (and my cousins) decided to take a road trip to miami!

8 hours isn't that long when you pop a xanax or two.


Viva Miami!
My cousins (and uncle) plotting an escape plan from the shitty hotel i booked (it really wasn't that bad!).
papa chillin like matt dillon
the 'rents

scene from "asia invades florida"
Hi! I just popped a vicadin!
Gorgeous Palm Beach (where the one-hour fishing detour was more like, uh, FIVE hours)
The baby sting ray my uncle caught.
The makeshift "pool" i created so it wouldn't suffer before they like killed it. (they ended up throwing it back into the ocean, thank god!)
Fishing like true rednecks
my doggy says "happy holidays!"

Israel part 2: Sharing the Shalom

There's lots to learn my Hacidic friends, so pay attention!

Tel Aviv is Israel's most cosmopolitan city, fueled by sublime beaches, a riveting nightlife scene, delish restaurants and hot Jews.



Despite that war shit going on, there's still a sense of (arty) optimism on the streets.


Jaffa is the old city, an ancient port and where Jonah set off before being swallowed by that damn whale.


The coast of Tel Aviv. I own this view.


They told us to be careful, but nothing about climbing electric posts. Thank God (and only God) for the signs.


Hey, this cafe looks familiar! (hint: The Bubble)


The market was pretty cool despite the ubiquitous security checks. Matt, translate this for my 2 readers please.


Did I mention the optimism?


I headed to the Dead Sea, the lowest place on Earth (400 meters below sea level).


Here, the sand is salt and the sea is—well—pretty fucking salty. So rich with salt and minerals that you literally float.


Floating without exertion.



This hot Russian just posed.


Remember King Herod and the opulent, isolated fortress he built in 1st AD? I didn't either, but it's a World Heritage Site and clearly commanding.


These are the two camels we rode to Jerusalem. It took only 22 days.


Panoramic view of Jerusalem, including the gates.


Hot soldiers.


The old city was built on top of Roman ruins.


This is THE Western wall, the only original wall from the Temple Mount and the holiest shrine for Jews in the world. Like, all mythical beginnings start here (ie: Adam) and the site includes the Dome of the Rock. Yall, this is like 3000 years old.


Hot soldiers.


You diggin' Biblical times? Time to enter the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.


This is the original rock (encased) from where Jesus was crucified.


They buried him here.


After all the history, I needed to go cruising. You wouldn't believe it, but they like to party in Jerusalem.

And, no lie, the city has unarguably boasted one of the world's best sunrises for several thousand years.

the good life in ISRAEL

No, really it exists (or at least that's what I'm here to discover). Sure, there's a war going on, but why should that deter people from exploring a beautiful country? Go travel bitches, especially Israel!

My first Israeli gas station (hey, we are driving everywhere, it makes sense, shalom!)

Stopped in Haifa up north to check out this gorgeous garden.

The Bahaii Shrine and garden during the day. Doesn't it kinda resemble the Hanging Garden (7 ancient wonders) ?

Okay, maybe the "mens bathroom" sign is a little scary, but not as bad as my driver's pony tail.

Akka... an ancient seaport/world heritage site...

Walled in

Chillin' trannie hooker

A different kind of "hookah"

The sea of galilee, where jesus apparently walked on water (behind me)

The town where he grew up!

This is the church (or remnants of it inside the new one) where Mary was told she was going to pop that hippy out

Just arrived in Tel Aviv... will post soon depending on how much trouble i get myself into..
