It's hard to believe that our 10th day has come and gone. Today was a much needed maintenance/rest day (with a bit of fun squeezed in!). On a long trip like ours, unfortunately we need to make time for fueling the car, changing money out, checking out an Israeli McDonalds (pretty much the same level of yuckiness as in L.A. but more expensive), grocery shopping and doing lot's of LAUNDRY. I've been missing my domestic duties (hard to believe) so I even took it upon myself to bake a cake. It was more a challenge in metric conversions then in creating a sweet treat and overall, I think it turned out well. The kids also enjoyed time at the local park and we were able to meet up with my cousin Oshrat and her cute little ones, Shira and David Israel. Oshrat was also kind enough to share a few old pictures along with some recent ones taken at David Israel's bris, in November 2010.

Mome and Leah bought the kids each their very own bow and arrow set. They have been wondering around pretending to be Robin Hood!
