I'm Going to be Out of the Country for a Month... Post something blue or white

I'm headed off to Israel for a month tomorrow night (technically 12:20am on Wednesday) and thought I'd let you all know in case I'm slow in responding to an email/PM/etc. I'll be checking in when I can, but it likely won't be more than once or twice a week. I found a great opportunity to spend a month studying in Jerusalem for next to nothing, so I jumped at the chance (and will, of course, also be enjoying an extended break from both MIT and Boston winter weather in general). I'll be back at the end of January, hopefully both well rested and a bit smarter.

For now, post something blue or white. Here are two of my favorites:

Lucky devil. I've been to Israel twice and would give anything to go back again. What a great place. Of course nothing in the world can match Jerusalem for history.

Do you have any ancient coinage from that region? That would be fascinating.

How about Blue AND White! Safe travel Jeremy.

Blue and White it is. Waste of a good rare coin (check out the mint mark)

I've got a widow's mite somewhere. Ancient coins haven't fascinated me too much over the years, but many of the other artifacts from the era (especially what's in the Israel Museum) are just incredible.

Have a great and safe trip. I'm supposed to go to Israel in a few month's with my husband.
Hey maybe you can go say hi to his relatives in Ramat gan

Very good use for a fake.

Jeremy, Have a great trip. Take lots of pics and please post them!

(Don't buy and ancient coins out there, or you'll have to colorize them too.)
