Friday, 19 December 2014

We really enjoyed the LGBT olim party last night, meeting several interesting people. Of course, we got to bed somewhat later than usual and thus I got up rather late and didn't go out for a walk befor breakfast. I did go on a couple of fairly long walks later in the morning, though.

For lunch, we again went to Tandoori, the Indian restaurant on Zamenhof Street at Diezengoff Square. Of course, we ordered different dishes today and really enjoyed them, too.

I went to Kabbalat Shabbat services at Beit Daniel, the large Reform synagogue here in Tel Aviv. David felt too tired to go. I walked over there, a distance of about 3 km (2 miles), but I took a taxi most of the way back.

I was really not very impressed with the place, but that's probably mostly because the rabbi talked a lot and all in rapid-fire Hebrew of which I understood very little. It was most likely very nice for Israelis, though.

Just I I was leaving, I got a somewhat panicked call from David, who was having an insulin reaction (very low blood sugar level), and I had to explain to him over the phone how to open the door to the small fridge in our room to get the candy bar out. He did manage to do it, though.

A little later in the evening, we went out for a light dinner with a couple of guys from the party last night at a restaurant just one short block from our hotel, and we enjoyed that very much.
