Faces of Israel 21

Favorite thing: One of the things that is great about Israel is the mixture of cultures, with people showing up from all over the world, in my mind it is a great place to raise a child, to teach them that just because a person comes from a different country and culture does not make them a stranger, just a friend you have not met yet. This photo shows my daughter (Now in 2008 is a soldier serving her two year mandatory duty) with two of her friends from her base.

Favorite thing: If you are lucky enough you may find a desert princess among the sand and rocks of our very mountainous desert....this picture was taken not too far from Masada...
Oppppps, sorry that is Gulench, our Turkish Princess, so I guess we will have to keep looking for a Desert Princess.

Faces of Israel 19

Favorite thing: We tried some "fancy" things and Orlie liked this one of her so I have included it at her request, so here it is Orlie, hope you like it.

Faces of Israel 18

Favorite thing: Meet Tal and her two friends, Orlie and Saphir. They decided to do a "photo shoot" one day and this was one of the photos that we all liked.

Faces of Israel 10

Fondest memory: Meet Galit, Tal, Nofar and Danielle. Tal is our 13, now 14 year old daughter and these ares some of her friends from class. They decided to get dressed up and go "shopping". To me it looks like they were going boy shopping !!

Faces of Israel 12

Favorite thing: Meet Tal and her friend Anna....
Anna came to help us paint the house.
Now you know that when you paint you should check to see the color of the paint BEFORE you paint the wall. I did not have a palate to use or anything handy, so I used the closest surface that I could find to "test" the paint.
What do you think?? Color okay ^O^

Faces of Israel 17

Favorite thing: Meet Dr. Eli Zalstien. He is Tals heart doctor and has helped us bring Tal to the age she is in good condition. You sometimes speak of people being "good" doctors, well Dr. Eli is not a good doctor, he is a FANTASTIC doctor, one of those people who takes each patient into his heart. Saying thank you to him for the help he has given and support he has lent is not enough. I think it is enough to say that even when Tal had to undergo heart surgery, she felt comfortable with Dr. Zalstien and that says a lot.

Faces of Israel 16

Favorite thing: Meet David and Inbal.
David is a new immigrant from the US and we have semi adopted him into our family. He spends most of his free time with us and Tal (our daughter) calls him "brother" and introduces him as her brother.
Inbal is Israeli from a family of Yeminite and Dutch parents.
