The Thorn Gent family on their trip to
Jerusalem

Brana
with watermelon We rented an apartment in east talpiot, Jerusalem, and
enjoyed living an ordinary life, with daily siesta.
Watermelon was delicious when we woke up each afternoon -
especially as it was a heatwave!

Esther
starting her felafel 8/1998 We didn't eat out - money was too tight -
but we enjoyed eating felafel, in Sfat, Tel Aviv and, here,
the Old City, when we entertained by Russian
musicians.
Frank
& Brana study the small ads Our Hebrew came back quickly, even after
19 years. Here we enjoyed reading the local free paper,
finding out about jobs, housing and local life.
The
Dome of the Rock On our first day we went to the wall, to
pray for Derrick Nahum. Leo and I went on Tisha be'Av, and
walked to shul every Shabbat.
Off
to the supermarket As always, shopping was our treat,
bargain-hunting, meeting local people.
