Yaffo

Day 140: Jaffa, Tel Aviv

Jaffa, also known as Yaffo, is the Old City of Tel Aviv, Israel. It was nice, quaint might be a better descriptive word. But it was a bit barren. The restaurant we wanted to go to was closed, which surprised Anat and Ron, who said it’s never closed. The ‘Old City’ offered a few cafes and a lovely church to walk in and say a little prayer, but that was it. It seemed like a lot of tourists, much like ourselves were strolling around with a kinda “This is it?” attitude. The port offered more, but the majority of the restaurants weren’t open yet and if they were, they were waiting for the dinner crowd. We are guessing that it’s more of a weekend/evening hang out than it is in the afternoon hours when we were visiting.
