Special K

Mrs Co.il and I had the pleasure last night of meeting up with Kasamba who is currently visiting Israel. Schmoozed in the lobby of the King David Hotel which has an ever constant stream of people walking in and out of it, even once the clock ticks past midnight.

Had a vague grainy image of how I pictured her but she blew that out of the water. Also had the opportunity to see Mr Kasamba and Asparagus.

Given that it's Shavuot and all was quite apt to be at the King David. Also keeping in the spirit of things Davidic will be in Efrat for the festival.

Shavuot is the only Chag which can start on a Thursday night and that wouldn't be a problem anywhere else but Israel. We lose our entire weekend plus have to come in to work today even though it is a defacto Friday.

On the pregnancy front not much happening other than this will be the last Chag before our little one, G-d willing, arrives. Chagim are a real family occasion so Rosh Hashana will indeed be special.

The Festival of the Boot doesn't qualify as a Chag.
