Tonight I am thinking of the next two wanderings that I have planned.

Next month I will be wandering to Jena, Germany. It will be a good time to visit as there should be pretty good weather. Also, the days are getting longer so I should have some time to get some good pictures in the evening when I am out for dinner.

Since I mentioned dinner, one place that I always visit when I am in Jena is the Roter Hirsch. The Roter Hirsch is one of the oldest restaurants in the world. See: Old Restaurant

I will also be having some of my favorite dishes at Restauration Stilbruch.

Some of my favorite restaurants in the world are in Jena so it is always a place that I really like to visit.

I will use food to transition to where I will wander in June. Today I purchased a ticket for another visit to Israel. One of the first places that I will probably eat is at Jacob’s Pizza as it is right across the street from the hotel I will be staying at in Jerusalem when I arrive.

The reason for the trip to Israel in June is to again participate in an archaeological dig. The picture above is from several years ago at Lachish.

This year I will be digging at the nearby site of Khirbet el-Rai. As it comes closer to dig time I will share some of what is known about the site. I have a lot of research to do 🙂

The picture above was taken at the end of the winter dig season earlier this year. It will not be nice and green while we are there.

I am ready to wander.
