We set the clocks ahead here in Israel last night, but I still got up quite early, even by the new time, and went out walking for more than 45 minutes. Later, I also walked down to recycle cardboard, buy some more pudding, and buy challah for Shabbat.

I taught only 1 units of Berlitz today: 10:00-10:45.

For lunch, I ordered our favorites delivered from Il Pentolino.

I did some more work on my music today, specifically my orchestral arrangement of BaShana HaBa'a.

I also did one more lesson from Hebrew Podcasts.

Before the sun disappeared behind the Eilat Mountains, we lit candles, sipped sweet red wine, and ate a bit of challah to welcome Shabbat.

אם-שמוע תשמעו בקלי ושמרתם את-בריתי, והייתם לי סגולה מכל-העמים

ואתם תהיו-לי ממלכת כהנים, וגוי קדוש

If you truly listen to My voice and keep my covenant, you will be a treasured possession for Me out of all the peoples, and you will be for Me a kingdom of priests, a holy nation.
