1. No, I did not see Mel Gibson (But I did get to take some pictures of some of the local scenery).
2. I am here for my brother-in-law’s wedding in a few days – and to take a break from it all for a while.
3. I am not very good at taking a break from it all – I am still constantly checking the news and worrying my head over what is going on at home in Israel.
4. I am really perplexed that my 3.5 years of blogging about Israel and the war on terror (including my 4 weeks of liveblogging events in Israel) can mean nothing to some people the minute I take time out of my holiday schedule to post some lighter, fluffier material.
