Tel Aviv, Israel

[Jake]

Me and Kir got back at about 1am this morning, but because it was burdenous Luton we had to wait until about 5am to get the train home. After getting about 2 hours sleep the previous night, and a crap nights sleep on the beach the night before, we were absolutely exhausted!

But, it was amazing, so it's fine

In this TR i'm going to combine both of our photos, due to the fact that I covered Superland and my night photos came out a bit crappy.

We didn't take pictures every day, so i'm going to split it into 3 sections;

1 - Beach and Leisure
2 - The Theme Parks
3 - Night photos of the city

So yeah... here is part 1!


Gay times at Luton <3

The room was basic to say the least... but for £12 a night i'm anyones!

Suddenly we were in the sun! This was the view from our balcony.

BEACH!

...other direction

Kir dancing with JESUS in the background...

Close up of JESUS

Lots of the locals were doing yoga and stuff, so we had a go at some acrobatics <3

Me getting rid of my shorts-tan. We did actually go for a swim, but no photos l'obv!

Group photo taken just before our SILENT DISCO on the beach!

So... after a day of sun and sea, we got ready to have a night out on the gay scene for some SEXy gay Israeli men There aren't any photos in the club, mainly because we were too trashed, but there are a few that we don't really remember taking, and only found out about when scrolling through photos when we woke up on the BEACH the next day


Before we left, post-bottle-of-vod

Lolz

Pwetty

<3

Irresponsible <////3

We're SUCH british louts.

To be honest, it's all a bit of a blur... and I don't remember much between that and waking up on the beach. I remember V'ing, which is how I must've hemoraged a blood vessel in my eye. AMAZING NIGHT!

Stay tuned for part 2!

Looks like your are doing a piss lol.

 

[kir]

Tel Aviv can get inside me! Absolutely ****ing amazing city! Any fags here who are looking for a gay friendly holiday in the sun, seriously, CHOOSE ISRAEL! It sounds crazy but they love it fag-stylee there. The men are so ridiculously hot, the sun is ridiculously hot... the locals were so peaceful and accomodating to our foreignness. I'll add more comments as Jake adds more comments and pics! <3 It involves a fab SLC. So you best watch this space!

 

[marc]

I have always wanted to go there to see the home land lol.

Looking forward to the rest of the trip, tbh I never knew it was so built up.

Glad you both had a good time.

 

[Ollie]

Looks like you both had a really good time.

 

[Ben]

omg, I think that photo of Jesus is scarred on my retinas for ever </3 Looks fab though

 

[Gavin]

I WANT the Israeli TOGO credit, and HAVE to go to Helen's Keller, whatever that is.

Great report so far, but in order to make it interesting for the proles, don't forget to include a "signature shot" of Stealth, preferably with the sun setting behind it, Colossus's inline twists, and a list at the end telling us how many times you rode each coaster.

 

[CreditCrazy]

Very cool to see! I'm really interested in visiting Israel, so this report is great. Can't wait for some pictures of the parks.

 

[Nic]

WAY sexier than that photo of Tay's arse we kept having to look at the other week.

 

[ECG]

^Couldn't agree more!

Good stuff guys. Keep it comin'! :--D

 

[LiveForTheLaunch]

WAY sexier than that photo of Tay's arse we kept having to look at the other week.

Don't lie, your vadge got all excited when you saw that

But Jake's picture is DEFINITELY sexier <3

Part 2

We visited SuperLand on the Saturday (the only day the park is open every week, except holidays!), and unfortunately this was the only day out of four that the weather was a bit crappy. It was cloudy, but very humid at 26 degrees. The photos didn't come out very well, because for some reason my camera can't cope with dark conditions!

We got up quite late, and due to no busses running in the day due to the holiday Shabatt, we decided to walk. It took us about 3 hours to walk to the park, so we didn't get there until about 3pm!

The beaches in the Slums of Tel Aviv aren't exactly luxury...

It was VERY windy, so we were doubtful that rides would be running, but luckily everything was!

The park is literally in the middle of nowhere, and we were greeted first by the SLC 'Kumba'.

Blurry photo of the lake and ferris wheel...

The park had a sky coaster, and some pretty cool, random themeing.

Hadn't done one of these in years, so gave it a spin. Pretty meh.

We gave the SLC a spin, and it was actually pretty good, well, for an SLC anyway. I guess the fact that it only operates one day a week makes it ride like a newer coaster...

The theming was good for an SLC too!

Victims/riders coming back towards the station:

Crap photo, but the eyes are fab so i'm posting it!

If you can walk under this without banging your head you're too small to ride!

OldSkool inverter ship, with the shortest cycle ever...

Swans through a waterfall <3

Second CRED, a fab pinfari looper!

Big wheel again...

Ghetto Log Flume, which got us SOAKED <///3

They also had rapids, which I failed to take a photo of!

Although, I HAD to get a picture of the most amazing carousel EVER <3

Palm tree speakers <3

Strange...

Kiddie CRED <3 <3 <3

Not a PHONEME.

Rockin-Tug

Kir and the Mascot.

... and the Exit/Entrance, with added floodlightspite.

Leaving the park, we spotted a H&S claim oppertunity <3

Night picture cred

So yeah... that's it for SuperLand. Sorry about the picture quality... although NOTHING would look nice in that weather haha.

The next day, it was nicer, and we headed to LunaPark, but it was SHUT! SPITE!

Boomerang SPITE

... and the new cred being built. Crap photo because we didn't even BOTHER getting out of the taxi when we realised we'd been spited.

It looks like a rollerskater.

On the way back we got dropped off at the Marina, which was right by the domestic/millitary airport. Planespotting <3

Marina

Part of the city...

Sunset

... and finally some art, illustrating how GAY tel aviv is. Some guys, one with a bumcrack out, peeking into the toilets/changing rooms on the beach!

Part 3 to follow soon/eventually.

 

[marc]

Was much open on Friday night and Saturday due to it being the holy day?

 

[Jake]

^ Yeah, I didn't notice a difference really. It's a city that doesn't sleep... so most things were open 24/7 anyway. We went out drinking on friday, and clubbing on saturday, so i'm pretty sure everything was open!

 

[NeilOrNoDeal]

That log flume <3

Park looks cute. I'm jealous you've got both Kumba credz.

 

[Lofty]

I'd have never of thought of going to Tel Aviv, it just wouldn't have crossed my mind ever.
Was it nice and would you recommend going to anyone?

That park looks pretty ghetto but great. Kinda reminds me of Camelot, minus the 'Great' part of the sentance.

 

[ECG]

Very cool, but too bad about LunaPark. Looks like timing is everything, so when do you suggest that one go in order to get all the creds?

 

[Jake]

^^ YES! It's a fab place. Everyone should go... now!

^ Easter or summer, over a weekend. Although, in the summer you're talking 40+ degrees every day!



Part 3


Buildings on the beach, right near our hostel:

A few pictures of the Azrieli Center...

Bridgeeeee

One of the transport routes into Tel Aviv, with more buildings in the background...

Kir shortly before the airport security the following day... having every single item RIPPED out of your bag and tested wasn't exactly fun!

Just before the 5 1/2 hour SleasyJet flight back to Luton;

... and finally, back at Luton, feeling like poo!

Part 3 was shorter than I thought it would be, but meh, thanks for reading!

 

[Nic]

How can someone with Caribbean blood possibly look so sunburnt?!

 

[Richie]

Oooh looks like a well good trip!

I love the fact you went to a gay club in israel <3
