Miniaturized Models

It's me again!  I want to tell you about some things I've forgotten to put in here and those things are, I say, pretty important.  I went to a place called 'Mini Israel' wich is a place about the size of a football feild and a half.  Why is it called Mini Israel, you ask. Well, it is because you can see every thing in Israel but miniaturized!  Mini boats, mini people, mini roads with mini cars and trucks, {for those who have visited Israel} mini Mt. Masada, mini Old City with mini Western Wall, mini train tracks with mini trains and train station, mini air planes with a mini air port, {the cars, trucks, boats, trains, and air planes move}mini memorial for Yitzchak Rabin, and a lot, lot, lot, lot more.  I went to this amazing place on one of my Tuesday Tiools with Coby.  This time I went with Coby, Coby's granparents, Coby's sisters and mom, Nathan, Jonah's friend, his sisters and mom, Jonah, my mom and dad! It gave us a good idea of where every thing is in Israel so we could get a lay of the land.

Who: Maya is Coby's younger sister.  Alana is Nathan's older sister
{from left to right}: Maya, Jonah, Nathan, Liana, Alana, Coby.
Setting:  In front of  a mini lake sitting on a railing, train tracks at our feet.

Animals Galore!

I went to the Israel Biblical Zoo and I saw a number of amazing animals! 
One day I also saw a cat at Gidon Park, right up the street from our house.  She came right up to me, my mom, and Jonah and rubbed her head on our backs.  We call her Shemesh, the Hebrew word for sun.  We saw her in the same place twice in a row but now we can't get her to come near us.  That's sad for me. 

Also, every Tuesday  my friend Coby's and my family get together to go on a tiool, or trip.  Once, we went to the Mifletset, or monster as we call it in English.  You climb up a lot of stairs into the monster's head, then climb down some stairs to one of the slides which are, in fact, shaped like the monster's 3 tongues and slide down.  After all that, whew!  I've had a great time!
