I was admonished by several people over the fact that I started blogging and then stopped again. No real excuses, but the end of the year was a bit crazy here at squint central but we did get to go on vacation to Israel. It was wonderful. There were so many memorable moments. The first falafel in a lafa from the 24hr falafel place on Allenby around midnight after we arrived in TA. The Hotel Ness and Zack. The kid's apartment, Kashka and Kitten. The shuk. The food (a falafel as day). The traffic. Mario and Yana. The reunion with SGI/Graphtech/Intel folks at Jems. The family. My wonderful children. The lumpy bed. A good shower. The horrible drive in the rain to SFO that took 4 hours. The constant noise of Israel. Kenny's shiva at the Greenblos. The two weeks of perfect weather.
It was wonderful. Israel will always have a special place in my heart. The people and the food, the smells and the stark light are all part of me. It was the first time in forever that I was in Israel on vacation. No houses to move, or stuff to pack up to send. No archaeology, no work. Only waking up late and spending long days with no real goal or pressure. A real holiday.
First falafel from Bon Taam. Not at all bad for a 24/7falafel place.
Friday humus from Shlomo and Doron. What can I say.

Loved Shlomo and Doron. Undoubtably the best hummus we had on our recent trip to Israel. Thanks to your kids for taking us there.
