I slept well and got up early enough this morning to take a nice walk to the big kikar and back. They're landscaping that kikar, and it's going to be really cool when it's done. In the middle is a giant deep blue anchor (part of the symbol of the city of Eilat). The word "Eilat" is in big letters right where someone entering on highway 12 will be sure to see it. Most of the kikar will be blue like the sea with lots of wave peaks and many figures of dolphins going in and out of the water. Already, we can see the basic form (the picture on the sign is how I know what the finished product will be like).
This morning we got going only slowly, taking a well-deserved breather. I did take time to write up my assignment for week 2 of my class, which is due by tomorrow. I actually turned it in later today.
Before lunch we took a drive around the short loop in the reverse direction (up highway 12 and back on highway 90).
When we got back we went directly to Ice Park and ate lunch at Greg café. David had edamame (but I actually ate about 2/3 of it) and I had fatoush salad.
When we got back, we called David's sister and had a long conversation with her. In fact, I mostly let David talk this time and took the time to listen to the lectures for week 3 of the class.
This evening we spent a little time listening to music on YouTube (on my computer). We listened to "Mars, Bringer of War" from Gustav Holst's "The Planets" and Mozart's 40th Symphony (and parts of a couple of other things).
