During our stay in Israel, we met up with an old friend of mine. We grew 
up in the same home town, and our families were good friends. We hadn't 
seen each other in 43 years. Miller (Hebrew name: Meron) and his partner 
Leonie took us to Beit Guvrin National Park, which is the site of 
several ancient cities and some very interesting caves. These are mostly 
happy snaps, but you may enjoy them.

A few pics of us:

An ancient columbarium, a chalk cave with many niches carved into the 
walls for raising doves:

Present-day doves, also known as pigeons, are still very much in 
evidence. As was their present-day residue. Ask my dry cleaner how I 
know.? :-)

Olympus E-M5 and 20/1.7.? Enjoy!
