Cahlon was able to wake up early, unfortunately, the other ministers did not, perhaps now, until the next elections, they'll be able to make changes.<br /><br />Our tourist industry is expensive because it is based on mostly 4-5 star hotels. There is no Motel 8 change of affordable, simple rooms and even 'tzimmerim' take advantage of that and charge high prices. Transportation costs a lot. The daily cost of renting a bus and driver adds a lot to a group tour, and car rentals are high because the original car cost is high. <br /><br />If Stas is blaming kashrut, security and arnona, then he hasn't learned much in office.joshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-68676676606634863202012-06-30T21:22:39.825+03:002012-06-30T21:22:39.825+03:00I marked them as spam.

We have found it cheaper to vacation abroad even with kids and air travel (but we do have a lot of FF points, which helps in that area). I hope he's successful.Commenter Abbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753256568022159103noreply@blogger.com
