And suddenly dark clouds covered the sky over the ancient port of Jaffa.

The port is mentioned a few times in the Bible, notably it was the place where Jonah embarked in the trip he was caught by the whale. It was also port of entry for the cedars of Lebanon used in the Temples of Jerusalem.

And it was here that St. Peter converted the first non-Jews (some Roman soldiers) to Christianity.

Hi,
I think staying away from this port is the best way :)
Nice catch of the light.
