The plan today was to meet with our friends the Shemesh's and the Zamir's for a tour of the Bamba Factory. Bamba is a corn based puff flavored with peanut butter. The kids learned all kinds of things about Bamba - it was first invented in 1964 for soldiers and then turned into a commercial product. The factory we visited is the only one that makes Bamba in all of Israel. In fact, when we arrived, there was a container being loaded for overseas shipment. Sometime soon, we'll see those same Bamba at Von's!

| Shwarma eat your heart out! |
Before we headed to visit Bamba and his house and factory, we were hungry, so the kids finally opted in and tasted one of the best things ever: SHWARMA! It was ever so delicious, especially with a side of "chips" (french fries). Mommy also enjoyed one of her favorite things: Cafe Afouch (or upside down coffee). Whatever it is, it is the best latte type drink ever - better than Starbucks and even Coffee Bean.
Later in the afternoon we headed to Dizengoff Center in downtown Tel Aviv for some noisy and crowded street action. I did find my way back to Hod HaSharon and then Hadera! I'm getting a hang of these Israeli freeways and the exits on the round-abouts too!
