Water Water and more Water!



Above: One of the main roads in Ben Ami!

Everyone is, without exception, talking about the weather. We stood amazed as rivers of water formed in the drainage ditches, rushing noisily past as rain continued to fall. Nahariya's main thoroughfare flooded as the Geaton overflowed its banks, and the riverbed in the moshav soon filled to capacity and the water spread to the roads and paths. The house is now filled with the unmistakable smell of eau du wet dog. We need this rain badly, but, as many other things in the country, nothing comes in moderation.


The front yard has now turned into a series of rivers and pools.
