Tails of the Gay Pride Parade

Not a typo, actually. We went to Tel Aviv this evening, but it was after the pride parade has pretty much run its course, so we just got to see a few “tails”.

We actually ventured out to the local sin city for a movie earlier. Terminator Salvation was too dark and depressing (plus too many holes in the plot), so we felt some fresh sea breeze would be nice. Walking along the beach promenade during sunset was just the thing – lovely.

Around Gordon beach in Tel Aviv, there were still lots of rainbow flags and some people dancing. Not too many though. I wish I had my camera with me as there were some very blog-worthy images to be captured… Huge rainbow flags with the Star of David in the middle… An IDF soldier in uniform with a rainbow flag on his shoulders… Gay couples walking hand in hand alongside religious Muslim women from Jaffa in their head covers… Some things you can only see in Israel ;)

    That is a pretty amazing sight! When a beauty is in plain sight, camera would be one tool to capture that sight. Anyways, they beauty you felt inside would capture that moment for a long, long time. Wish i could go to Israel to see that!
