Today I spent all the day with Helen at work again - mostly staring at the computers (was it worth travelling to another continent?!) But then we went for a walk around the campus, and it was really nice. The place looks like a park or a tourist resort! who could believe that it's one of the biggest universities in Israel and is even recognized internationally as a member of the 100 most outstanding academic institutions in the world.
Here is a fountain at the entrance - not that I like water, it's not healthy for my plushy purple skin, but it does look kind of nice.
The administration building, which contains also a couple of shops, a canteen, a students' clinic, etc, and most importantly, the post office. Here is where I had arrived in the box and waited to be picked up!
The alleys go alongside the green lawns which are very comfortable for sitting, relaxing or studying. It's also common to see families with kids here, but I didn't see any, maybe it was too hot for humans, I think around 30°C.
The campus is decorated with some weird statues. This one is probably the least weird - I was wary of it at first, as I was sure it's a female troll, but Helen convinced me that in any case trolls do not eat bunnies.
And another alley. All the buildings around are quite uninspiring, so I didn't care for their pictures. Btw if you wonder what I'm sitting on - it's a CD case. I highly value my appearance and don't want to make my furry bottom dirty.
A promenade with pine trees around. (Maybe not exactly pine trees, but something similar)
It appears there's a great view from the balcony (but of course it pales in comparison to my ears). I could spot the Israeli art museum on the horizon, but unfortunately, it's closed for renovations, so it doesn't make sense to visit it any time in the near future.
I've also made a few pictures of me around the flowers, but I'm saving them for the next post, to avoid overloading this one with pictures.
