MessageHi Daniel,
Just sent a note, but headed it Bus 4, instead of Bus 2 (what was I thinking!) so I hope it gets to you. The biggest news in the note: Ana coming in September to DC!
In sports news, Cubs are 1 1/2 games back from Milwaukee; they lost yesterday to Houston (5 to 2). And you have probably heard about Bonds breaking Aaron's record (against the Nats no less). The LA Galaxy is playing the United tomorrow (Thursday), but it's uncertain (probably doubtful, according to the today's paper) that Beckham will play -- still recovering from injury to this left leg.
That's it for now.
Much love, Mom

MessageHi Julian,

I have never heard of a country by the name of Tuvala, have you? It must be an island somewhere. Anyway it sounds like you guys are going to be having a great time over the next few days. I hope that you will get to swim in the Red Sea as well as the Dead Sea. The party on the Disco boat sounds like a lot of fun. By the time you get this message you will already have hiked up Masada, I hope you enjoyed the experience and took lots of pictures. I am sure that you loved the Bedouin food, I know how you like Middle Eastern dishes. I think the whole family is coming up to Chicago to pick you up, we are all really excited to see you, even Emily said that 8 weeks without seeing you was a really long time. I signed you up for the ACT prep course at Central, it is only in the afternoons from 2:30-4:00 so you will still get to sleep in and have time to goof off a bit before school starts. smilie By the way, did you ever send out a letter to us, I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet?

Love Mom

MessageHello Daniel,
Hope you are doing well and enjoying this last week. I've just read the blog, and the activities sound great.
We got a call from Ana last night -- she is planning a trip to the US and hopefully will be spending three days with us in September! It will be great to see her.
I am planning on taking Thursday (tomorrow) and Friday off. As I mentioned in an earlier note, Dad and I may go out of town Friday and Saturday, but we will have course have cell phones with us.
Much love,
Mom

MessageManu,
I just read the blog and my only thought was that you probably had no trouble eating with your hands. We've taught you well. smilie
Sound like you have a lot planned for the next few days. Climbing Massada at sun rise is quite an experiance. I hope you are taking pictures.
Sophia is calling me. She wants me to walk her to the high school for her first day of marching band camp. I guess it means going to the home games. FUN
Love Mom

MessageHi Gabe

Quick note - I hope you get this in time. I really wanted to tell you this last nite, but you & Josh got cut off. Nao bought the wrong stuff for Renee - if you can get a 2.5 ounce (75 ML.) tube of Dead Sea Products (not AHAVA) Mineral Care Moisturizing Day Cream for Dry Skin it would be greatly appreciated. Renee paid 25$US on line for it here spo it should be less there. Got to run to the hospital to round.

See you soon.
Love Mom smilie

MessageWhat a delight to get your completely unexpected call last night as we were drifting off to sleep. I imagined you arriving at Masada and making the long hike to the top as the sun rose. It must have been both beautiful and moving, if not a little tiring. (I suspect you didn't get too much sleep in the tents). Eilat should be fun. Dad and I went there on our honeymoon. We actually stayed in Taba, which is now part of Egypt. We had a great time. It sounds like they are packing in a lot of activity for your last few days. Try to get some sleep on the plane! Ok dear, this is probably my last e-mail (really) since I'm not sure you'll even get this one, but it feels like I'm communicating with you, even if it's a one-sided communication. Love you -- Mom

MessageHi E:

That Bedouin meal sure sounds good. I wish I was there (but don't worry, not with you and your friends).

Bonds hit 756 tonight. I was listening live on the internet down here in Australia. Not clear anyone else here cares. Apparently it was only about 20 minutes after you got off the phone with Mommy, so you were almost there, sort of ...

Saw a real kangaroo last night, and ate part of one's leg the night before. Pretty tasty, for a marsupial. Fortunately, the one I saw was not limping.

Have fun, and I'll see you soon.

Love,

Abba

MessageHi Davina,

Good news as you can see from Barry's email.

Meanwhile, I am getting ready to fly to the UK.

I spoke to Shelly today and she sends you her love. She is coming to Vancouver in October.

Have a lovely rest in Vancouver and I will see you after UK.

Lots of love

MessageHi Jonathan,
Our days in NY are numbered now. We are packing in all sorts of sites and activities here as we read on the blog that you are too. We are certainly looking forward to seeing you at the end of the week!
I understand from Melanie that Naomi would like an RSVP for Miriam on the 14th so I'll send her an affirmative.
Please give us a call soon so we can talk to you before you leave Israel.
Lots of love.
Mom
