I got up very early this morning and walked to the gym to work out there a bit. My energy level seemed a bit low, though, and there was very little breeze, so I felt a bit warm. But it was still a good walk. Later, I walked down to recycle the cardboard boxes and to buy challah at the local bakery.
I had only one student for a 2-unit Berlitz lesson today: 11:00-12:30. We spent quite a bit of time in this lesson with him (he's from Spain) telling me about his recent trip to the Baltic countries (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania). This was good practice for him, and it was also very interesting for me to hear.
Immediately after I finished teaching, we hurried over to David's appointment with his psychiatrist. After that, we had lunch at Greg Café at Mercaz Big. David had their "Home Fries" הום פרייז salad, and I had their "Country" כפרי salad.
In the evening, as the shadows of the Eilat mountains advanced towards Aqaba, we lit candles, drank sweet wine, and ate challah to welcome the Shabbat queen. Oh, and Pascal (our amazing and wonderful Israeli black and partly white cat) ate seeds from the challah, something he looks forward to every week.
Shabbat Shalom to everyone! שבת שלום לכולם
