Great pictures @SkinnyMe

Brought back great memories

I visited Egypt and the pyramids in about 1989-ish.

I visited Israel in 1995

Nice pics!

I have never been to Israel but I did visit Egypt and recognized the pictures from Luxor.

Did you travel alone? It all makes me wish I were young. No chance but I can bask in the happiness of others. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m really fascinated by Jewish culture and religion. I want to visit Israel one day but it has stairs everywhere unfortunately!

I traveled with a big group from my Church. There were 45 of us. Of them all, I only knew two people. And not that well.

I would not be brave enough to do that these days.

I was paranoid practically the whole time. I think due to lack of much sleep from jet lag and ungodly early wakeup calls every morning.

Could also have been from the fact that I cut my Seroquel dose in half while I was there.

I was also having visual hallucinations while there. These have stopped now.

@PinCushion, the average age of our traveling group was 65. I’m 63. The oldest of us was an 80 year old man who walked with a cane. And he kept up slow but sure. His wife was 77. She kept up too. And there were hills and stairs everywhere. I could barely make it without resorting to my tactic of yogic breathing. Without that, I don’t know what I would have done.

If someone is very sedentary (like me), or is out of shape (can’t briskly walk around the block a couple of times without getting worn out), I’d say, don’t go.

If you’re going to visit these places, do it when you’re young, healthy and strong.

Wow! How cool you got to go! Sorry you were symptomatic while there. I’m glad you feel better now.
