Jaffa, Israel

Ari’s Room is full of memories for me. I stayed with my friend Ari many times over the years, on visits to Jaffa in Israel. The picture shown only part of a vast, elegantly proportioned tall room with marble floors and arches at each end. The two doors at the far side lead to a balcony, with views over Jaffa, with palms and Bougainvillea framing the view.
