We recently bought two bicycles. It took a few months from when Jana asked for one to the point we actually went out and purchased one. But it wasn't for lack of trying. Jana wanted a bike to cruise around town with Atom in tow and explore some of the other parts of Tel Aviv, in particular, Tel Aviv Port which is about 3 miles north from us. Because we live on the 2nd floor and don't have too much space, Jana really wanted a bike that could be folded and easily carried upstairs. Unfortunately every bike dealer except for one did not recommend putting a child seat on the folding bikes. In the end, we decided to purchase two bikes, one folding and one like a cruiser. And the child seat was placed on the cruiser. And best of all, they were cheap. About 1000 shekels cheaper than the other bike stores we went to. And that's 1000 shekels per bike. Anyways...
Now with the bikes, we are able to extend the range of our treks into Tel Aviv. Last weekend, we biked south along the beach to see what was going on in Jaffa. To our surprise, Jaffa has a little port that's kinda like a Fisherman's Wharf. In the port, we past by some old Russians men sitting outside a warehouse drinking and snacking all around a rickety table. Jana and I looked at each other and both thought, "Russian Mafia."
We then made it to a large park along the beach where Atom climbed around the jungle gym and wore himself out. He fell asleep in the child seat on the ride back home.

I was just thinking about getting a baby seat for Kian for my bike too. But first i have to steal it back from Mar cause he rides it to work everyday...even though it's a girlie bike.
