It's Haifa Time

Gavriel in Israel

Yesterday we went to Haifa.  The way we got to Haifa was, first Ima drove to Modiin, and from Modiin we took the train to Haifa.  The reason we had to go to Haifa was, if we wanted to get our shipping container we needed to sign a few things so we can get it without having to go to the dock.  Next we went to the Carmelit .  On the Carmelit we rode to the science museum, called Madatech.  It was really fun.  The first thing we did when we went inside was we went to the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit.  My favorite part of that exhibit was the pedal powered spinning wheel. I thought that was excellent.  After that we went and saw a demonstration of how you can put a skewer through a balloon without popping it.  As you can imagine, there was a lot of balloon popping involved.  After the demonstration we went to a room with optical illusions.  After that we went to a room that was like the physics lab in OMSI.  After that we went to a magic room.  In the magic room, I lay on a bed of nails, pretended I was only a head,  made liquid go up and down in a bottle,  and made a hat move without touching it.

After the magic room we went to an aircraft room, my favorite part of the room was getting to fly a miniature helicopter.  It is much harder than it looks. When we went outside, I pulled a boat, picked up a barrel, and flew in a helicopter.

That day in Haifa was well spent.  We went back home on the train.  We went to a restaurant for dinner.  The food was very good.  After that we got the keys to our apartment.  By the time we got home it was 10pm.  I usually go to bed at 8pm, so I was very sleepy.
