		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday morning I took Lois to Shuk HaCarmel in Tel Aviv.  We had no clue where we were going but the gps got us there somehow!!  We walked around for a long time in the hot sun.  We bought a few things but of course Lois was down to her last 50 NIS and I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shabbat flew by.  One minute we were lighting candles and the next we were making havdallah.  Basically, we went to shul, came home and played some ball, ate lunch and then the adults and Keren took naps while Talia and Ben played outside with friends.  When we woke up we didn&#8217;t know where Ben was.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Purim Parade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, Thursday, Lois went to meet her friend in Yerushalayim.  Robin drove her in and Eric picked her up later on in the day.  She said that it was great seeing her friend and she had a really nice day.  Meanwhile, the kids had school and we had errands to do. 
In the afternoon I took [...]]]></description>

		<title>Snow in Israel!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know where I&#8217;ve left off.  I probably haven&#8217;t written in days but I don&#8217;t remember what&#8217;s been happening so I am going to skip over it completely.  Monday evening we pick Lois up at the airport.  The kids brought her in and right away opened up her suitcase and started taking out their [...]]]></description>

		<title>A wet Shabbat &amp; Purim</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;ll cut right to the chase.  Our Shabbat was all about the water.  Friday night it rained all night.  I slept well despite the pounding rain and hail on the roof (it seems to hail here every time there is a heavy rain, I am not sure why) and the thunder but Eric had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pre-Purim Madness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Haven&#8217;t had a chance to write or, rather, been too tired at the end of the day to write.
Wednesday was the usual and in the afternoon I took Talia and Keren to visit savta and saba.  Ben wasn&#8217;t up for it.  He was tired and said he wasn&#8217;t feeling so well.  So he stayed home [...]]]></description>

		<title>Purim Purim Purim</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I mentioned to my friend on the phone last night that Purim lasts a week in this country she told me that I told her the same thing last year.  I guess I just forgot about it.   Today, yet again, Talia learned absolutely nothing in school and came home to tell me she had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s 15 minutes until Shabbat so I&#8217;ll make it quick.
Nothing doing today.  Of course it wasn&#8217;t a beach day today so we didn&#8217;t go.  It was nice, but not as hot as the other 4 days this week.  This morning we walked to the bakery and then to Robin&#8217;s house to see her new rug [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning I picked up Foster with Keren.  Ben decided to stay home and Talia stayed with him.  The kids were ready early so I took advantage of it and walked to school with them.  We usually walk to school but on Thursdays we have to drive b/c there usually isn&#8217;t enough time to get [...]]]></description>
