| The Hotspot Donkey |
It's WiFi for your ass -- the animal kind -- and it's only available in Israel.
Yes, as unreal and inappropriate as that proposition may seem, an
historical amusement park located in the Middle Eastern country will
offer tourists the opportunity to tweet, email and upload photos
on-the-fly from the back of a burro. Known as Kfar Kedem, or Village of
Yore (sounds exciting!), the unique attraction attempts to reenact life
from the Common Era's First and Second centuries, albeit with a healthy
dose of wireless internet. So far, only five of the village's 30
available donkeys are currently outfitted with routers, but park manager
Menachem Goldberg's toying with an expansion to the rest of his
"fleet." Sure, a biblical ren faire might not be your number one
vacation destination, but if you're in the area, there's no way you can
pass up this low-tech ride back in time.
