| Message | To: Daniel Danilov Hi Honey! How are you and I hope that you are still having a great time. Things around here are quiet and everyone is waiting for your arrival. Honey, write down my cell number just in case if you need it (416) 919-0984. When you arrive in NY, just in case if there are any delays, please call me hon. I hope you don't mind, but there are some people want to come to see you when you arive B'H and I decided to have a small get together in "Mr. Eli" if you don't mind. I know you probably will have tiring trip, but we could do it in afternoon. I am not sure if I told you, I will be very busy starting september, because I am back in Ryerson University and taking few courses. Tuesday and Wednesday nights will be busy for me, but I will do my best to keep up with your math tutoring.   You will not believe what I found. I found the web site, where all my childhood friends from Russia write messages and I got my friends from 1st grade writing me emails lol. Honey, I love you and miss you. Mom    |

| Message | Hi Raphe, I gather from the blog that your days are full and intense -- we'll be eager to hear about them more when you get home (soon, now!). Lea got off to Colombia; she was a little sick, and rather sad, when she left, but I think she's pulling herself together and getting started. She has a great room on top of a hostel (in the attic, actually -- up a ladder), and it's on a hill and Bogota is in the mountains, so it's apparently a fabulous view. Her big problem at the moment is getting a phone that works. I'm off to Craftsbury in a few minutes to go to sculling camp. I'm taking lots of changes of clothes on the theory that I'll tip over each time I go out in the scull, so I'll want clean and dry clothes for the next attempt. Does that sound right? wish me luck! Dad is meeting me at Robertson's vacation home in Vermont on Sunday; we'll ride bikes and eat Mary Pat's fabulous cooking for 2 days, then come home to my way-overdue paper writing again. Should be fun. Whisper is teaching Snowball how to pee outside the litter box --oysh!! His real name is apparently Prince Whisper, and he is indeed acting like a spoiled prince at the moment. Oh well. Kitchen is coming along, but endless chores to get it into shape. And then there's the rest of the house... off to VErmont. With much love, Mom |

| Message | Phil, Last night when I got home from class I heard that you called again and got a chance to speak to Dad. I'm glad you were able to call again. Dad doesn't often get the chance, with me hogging the phone when you call. Brenna and I went to our pizza making class last night. It really was fun. After the class, we got to try everyone's handiwork and even take leftovers home. My favorite was the dessert pizza. We make our own almond paste and spread on raspberry filling and baked it on a pizza crust. Then when it was still warm we shaved white chocolate over the top! YUMMO ! Now we get to pack for our vacation. That will be the focus of the weekend for me. We leave really early Monday morning. I hear that there is a lifeguard strike in Israel. Does everyone there know you passed your lifeguard certification this past spring? maybe you could help out? I'll talk to you again this weekend. Have fun on your free weekend. Love ya, Mom |

| Message | Dov, before I forget - phone your dad from the airport when you get to New York, just so he'll know when and where to pick you up. Of course, if you find out the exact information before you leave Israel, please contact your dad and give him the details. Right now no one seems to know when your group will arrive back in Vancouver. Naomi Kassell sent information about your day at Miriam and I'll leave it on your bed so you can figure out how to get there. You might need to bum a lift from a friend's parents. It's late. I have to get to bed. Another bit hug, Mom  |

| Message | Hi Jev, Sorry it didnt work out for the free weekend. Its hard to believe that your trip is over in just over a week! I have been following your progress on the blog and it sounds like a wonderful program. I am glad you got to do the full program. Remember Daniel's plans were totally changed last year. I see they are leaving the best for last- Eilat! Beautiful day today. I took the afternoon off and went down to Wreck Beach. Saw Jeffrey and Barry Rabinowitz on the beach. Had a snooze under my new beach umbrella ( bought at Cheapskates). Then came home, watered the flowers. Now off to walk the dog and to bed. Jev, I will be waiting at LAX airport for me next Sunday the 12th August. I will have my cell with me. 604 4189821. I think Mom is going to write this weekend. She is staying at granny and grampa's home in JHB and their internet connection isnt working. ( Nor is her cell phone in SA, so she is feeling quite isolated! But she is working so hard, she probably doesnt notice as much.) Enjoy your last week. All love, Dad |

| Message | Dear Dov, I'm getting butterflies in my tummy! Only one more day and then I'm away. It's so hot here that I can hardly stay awake. Yia yia came upstairs for one of your dad's famous hamburgers, but I think she was too hot to finish it. I slept through a great chunk of the movie "Lord Jim." Too bad really, because I last saw it when it came out in 1965 when I was just a slip of a girl of 18. It was adapted from a Joseph Conrad book. He was Polish but wrote in English. The worst part of this heat is that I promised to bake some cookies for a bat mitzvah that I won't be at. I'm leaving them in the temple freezer and hope they don't get forgotten. Baking in this weather should be fun! So, you had yet another exciting day, doing different things and meeting people you wouldn't normally meet. AND eating what sounds like some delicious food. Try to remember what that Arabic dessert tastes like so you can describe it for me in graphic detail. Did you get the recipe? Was it as good as your banana cake? One more e mail tomorrow night and after that you're going to have to live on the memory of my scintillating missives. Love and kisses and hugs x0x0x0 Mom p.s. Dad just said he misses you and looks forward to seeing you again. |

| Message | Hey Lenny! How goes it? Did you have kafne in Abu Gosh? Mmm...mmm...mmmmm Sophie B. is at our house. The Bregmans got her a radical haircut and she looks like a shadow of her former self. I'm sure she's much happier and cooler. This weekend we're going to take her swimming at Trout Lake or at some artificial lake in Coquitlam that's in an off leash park. She's a riot in the water. When she first goes in she gets water up her nose and sneezes like crazy. We don't have any special plans for this long weekend because we leave on our driving holiday next Friday and so we decided not to fight the crowds on the highways this weekend. Instead we'll do day trips to places with water and maybe canoes so that we can cool off and have fun with Soph. I don't know if you've made plans to stay with anyone for the free weekend, or whether you're staying with the group, but either way, it sounds like you'll have a good time. We're having the inside of the office painted so I have to be very careful not to let Sophie rub up against any of the walls, or she'll have white azure paint all over herself, lol Tomorrow is a very busy day at the office so I might not have time to write again before Shabbat, so Moshe and I want to wish you Shabbat Shalom and a fabulous weekend! Lots of Love, Isabelle, Moshe and Sophie dawg |

| Message | Dear Anna, I am writing to you instead of packing for our trip to the Island. That's o.k.,I'll get it done in the morning, (lets hope!)...So now you have been to Jerusalem and to Yad Vashem. This must have been an intense experience. I do hope that you were able to process everything you saw and learned on your visit to the museum. Jerusalem is an amazing and holy city. When I stayed there with Miriam many years ago it was during the Moslem holiday of Ramadan. The bells tolled for prayer throughout the day. I can't wait to see you in about a week! Please feel free to call--we'll be back on Tuesday. Have fun on the free weekend--I assume that you will not be the only one staying behind. Love and kisses, Mom |

| Message | Hi, Just heard from mom who says you called her. That's nice but I sure would like a call or an email etc. Anyway, things are good here, just saw Hairspray the movie, with John Travalta playing a woman - crazy, but I was in the mood for mindless entertainment and this fit the bill. Great weather continues. I need to know what are your plans for when you come back, I do have some flexibility in my work schedual and your father will spend Aug. 12 with you since I'm taking the 1st Aid course. But if you are going to stay in Vancouver until you go to Camp Miriam that's ok. Whenever you come home I'll free up time and make sure the fridge is well stocked. BUT PLEASE CONTACT ME AND TELL ME YOUR PLANS!!! Glad you're having such a wonderful time!!! Love MOM |
