Jonah in the Old City, Monkey Park, and Dancing!

A window into Jonah's first trip to the Old City with Daddy:
Jay made a scavenger hunt for Jonah.  They rode the bus, found ALL the items, and of course had fresh, warm pita at the end!

We also visited "Park HaKofim" with our friends, the Resnicks.  Every Tuesday the kids get out of school at 12:45, and we've decided to take afternoon trips together as much as possible.  As you can see, kofim are monkeys.  We saw some, and also did a little monkeying around ourselves!  The monkeys at this

have a lot of space to move around in an wonderful environment.  The park is also connected to a Sanctuary where injured monkeys or lab monkeys come to be nurtured and resocialized, and then they are sent to healthy environments, often in Africa.

Liana and I went to our first Israeli Dance session on Tuesday evening.  Three of the dances we did in the first hour were dances I taught during the Beth Shalom class this fall!  Liana was so excited to recognize them and know them!  We ended our evening with Liana's first taste of Israeli Falafel and Shwarma!  Yum...

Tonight we're all going to the David's Citadel Sound and Light Show in the Old City.  Life is good!
