Jerusalem has been fantastic but, I am keen to get to Haifa. My mind is playing games with me and I just want to put it at ease by getting to Haifa and close to the port. After booking a cheap hotel in Haifa, I hit the road West towards Tel Aviv. According to my calculations, it should be a relative short ride of about 180 km today. And it sure is! One thing about Israel is that it has some absolutely amazing freeways, which are easy to navigate, even without any GPS. In less than two hours I arrive in Haifa, and seek out the port. My hotel is not far from it hens, it makes for a good landmark and starting point. After stopping to ask for directions, I eventually find the Eden Hotel, my accommodation for the night. He Eden Hotel is a low budget hotel, in the heart of Haifa's CBD district called Hadar. It is nice and clean and the room has aircon, which is a necessity for me in this high humidity environment. The owner also instructs me to park my motorbike in the hotels foyer which makes me even more happy.
After securing my bike and off loading all my luggage, I decide to give the local shipping agents a call, and am told that we are still on track for departure on Wednesday. I am instructed to call back on Tuesday.
