Laundry Qween




On friday, Nov. 10th I was walking to the Gay Parade in Jerusalem and I have met the lady in the pictures, it seems like for her there is nothing more important and the Israeli democracy can wait and who are the proud people who needs to protest ? it friday after noon and there is a lot of work to do before shabbat.
Our eyes crossed when she was trying to hang her wet laundry on a system of wires that looked
like a giant spider web in her front yard that was about 6 steps lower than the street.
The qween wanted to use the metal bar that was on the wall between her and the street to hang more cloths as the spider web was full, and that's when she asked me to help her to reach the bar from the street and hang some shirts on it.

I did what she asked and then she asked for just a little thing "if you can help me with the blanket I will be like a qween" she said, and how could I refuse that... so I followed her to the back yard and waited as she hand washed the blankets and then I carried them out to the street and put them neetly on the metal bar to dry in the sun. I also asked what kind of detergant she was using ? "Bio is the best."

Then I said Shabbat shalom and went back to my world, to help the gay community save it.


Here are some photos.

מעולה. טקסט ותמונות. נראה שכל רגע יכול להפוך לגילוי והרפתקאה- אם הולכים ברחוב עם ראש ובעיקר-לב פתוח- קראתי, חייכתי ונהנתי..
