Whimsical Windows, Delirious Doors! #135

Here we are, back for your favorite little meme!

Last week I told you that I'd be posting something from outside the Old City in Jerusalem. Well, I've decided to take myself at face value: here are two structures that we saw from across the valley, on our way back to the car right after having been in the Old City :)
Intriguing Structure #1:

 isn't that cool? Wait - here's the cropped version, maybe you can see it better that way:

And here's the other, Intriguing Structure #2:

and its cropped version:

I couldn't tell from far away if that was the design, or if it's being renovated. From the close up on my limited camera, it seems pretty clear that it's surrounded by scaffolding. But I still think it looks neat :)

Skywatch - at last :)

Well, it's been months since I last posted to Skywatch Friday, and I miss it sorely! Here are a few of the things that have been happening over here:

That's it for now, I'll try to post again soon :)

Welcome back to your favorite little meme!

Here are the next photos in my Old City of Jerusalem series. First, some hidden arches and a stairway:

followed up by some lovely windows:

 

I really do try to keep this blog apolitical - generally speaking, I try to stay apolitical myself - but we're all just so sad here in Israel, I feel I have to say something. Please send some good karma our way, and pray for the speedy, safe return of the three high school boys who were kidnapped here just a few days ago! 

Oh, and please play along with us here at Whimsical Windows, Delirious Doors! All you need to do is post a photo of a window, door, or anything architectural, link here, and sign up in the widget, below. Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week, all!

Welcome back to your favorite little meme!

Here we are, back in the Old City of Jerusalem, heading down toward the Kotel, also known as the Western Wall:

And here we are, at our destination!

Whimsical Windows, Delirious Doors! #131

Welcome back to our little meme!

Something I really like about walking around the Old City is that occasionally, you have the opportunity to actually walk along the tops of the walls. Like this:

 

Those tiny windows at the tip-tops used to be defensive, thankfully now they're just windows :)

I apologize that I haven't been better about visiting all of you, I've been really overwhelmed with a lot of things, and just barely have time to put out these once-weekly posts. Here's hoping that my situation changes soon, so I can go back to a more relaxed blogging lifestyle :)

Anyway... now it's your turn! Please play along with us here at Whimsical Windows, Delirious Doors! by posting your photo of a window, door, or anything architectural, linking up here, and then signing up in the widget, below.
