Burp Burp Burp

As anyone who has watched Rum Diary will know you never get back the time you wasted watching it, we gave up half way through as we just couldn't get to grips with it.

I woke after a very restless night and watched the new instalment of my 30 day challenge offt  it was gonna be burpees all the way, just love em, love, love em, NOT. So ipad, iphone, towel and headphones in hand off I went to the gym, shabbat means empty gym so thankfully no one got to see me burping like a hippo on heat, I am happy to report I survived right through to the end of the routine, and although I really did have to coach myself to keep at it, once I was finished I didn't feel as bad as I thought I would, well not really....

We decided to head to Tel Aviv today for a walk along the beach front, we took the car so we could park it on the north side of Dov airport and then walk into Tel Aviv new port, we would have walked from Herzliya but with the weather dumping 300% of expected rainfall for the time of year meant there would be no way that track road would not have been flooded so we parked it in the car park and walked along the shore line to Tel Aviv, the beach and paths were strewn with rubbish that has obviously been thrown around by old Ma Nature, everywhere was such a mess and it is going to take some time to get things back in order down there, the work has begun already as piles of drift wood and rubbish are piled at the far end of the beach, the river that leads into the sea was awash with bamboo of all things again it must have washed down the river over the last week and washed up on the banks at the mouth of the river. The sun was out as we walked along and warmed us up nicely, until we decided to stop for a coffee and a spot of lunch at the port, the wind coming into the coffee shop unfortunately made the store very chilly, and I decided we would have been better eating whilst walking just to keep ourselves warm.

One should not drink Zero through a straw because it leads to gas, all the way back to the car I was burping away the air that had obviously filtered its way down my straw, note to self use a glass....

Tonight for supper we had turkey, I'm getting my fair share of the Christmas bird now, hooray!! and it tasted so much better for being so much cheaper than the last little bird I purchased the other day .... during supper my DOMS decided to rear its ugly head and my fork became very heavy very quickly, I said it before and I will say it again, I love burpees me, love, love, love em :(
