The snow started two nights ago and it almost looked like doomsday yesterday. Israelis are not used to snow and as soon as it does snow, they don't go to work and just stay at home.
In Europe, Canada or the US, we are used to plenty of snow. In this country, people panic. Shops, municipality, government buildings, everything is closed. People stay inside and don't even bother to leave the house.
Now, the snow has stopped but half of the shops in Jerusalem are still closed. Buses don't go regularly because more snow was predicted. Whoever wants to see the Jerusalemites today has to go to Sacher - Park where they are all building snowmen with their kids.
I still cannot understand this kind of mentality. Not moving at all because of snow ?
EY...I think is wonderful don't go no Ware and America we so plastic(like money) and we don't stop working.

ReplyDeleteWith enjoying the Creation you are right. However, I was rather fed up because people didn't clean up the sidewalks and we had to walk through rivers of melting snow.:-)
