the day Hagit was sick we have full documentation of everything we eat. you can vote on why.... Option I - in meny place you can go into the kitchen (somthins right on the street) and point to what you want. somtimes they boil it, somethimes fry it. in this place they put it on the BBQ with spices. we had only vegtables

A big dilemma
On the one hand, I want to shoot you both for being there while I'm here having to work for a living (not to mention all the rest of the shit). On the other hand, I want you to keep on travelling and taking photos of those places I'm not likely to visit in the coming years (decades?). In the meantime, since I have no way of shooting you through the web, you're spared. PS. how long was the night picture exposure? It's incredibly steady. Also the sky pictures are great (and the little boy too). PPS. I vote for the chicken-burger. You know my take on local food vs. fast food (will make you sick even faster than you can eat it).
