I got up very early this morning after sleeping really well, and I went for a walk around the full big loop plus an extension or two. I only took a couple of pictures, but one of them is today's pic of the day, a beautiful red lily by the highway 12 kikar:

I was scheduled to teach 5 units of Berlitz lessons today, but two 2-unit lessons were both no-shows, so I actually only taught 1 unit (I get paid for all 5, though): 9:15-10:00, 3:30-5:00, and 6:00-7:30.

I walked over to the Shufersal on Y'rushalayim HaShlema to do a little shopping (and get a little more exercise) after my morning lesson. They didn't have the pita that I was hoping to find (they often don't have it, even at the big Shufersal), but I bought a few other items.

I got quite a bit of work done on my symphony today. I completely rearranged the orchestra into a rather unconventional seating arrangement, but it definitely improved the separation of the various sounds. I put the woodwinds on the extreme left, the string on the extreme right, and the brass in the center. I'm very pleased with the results. I also continued editing levels of various instruments to improve the balance and make sure that parts are heard the way they should be.

I had a tomato, a cucumber, a vegetarian shnitzel, a some cookies for lunch at home.

I walked a total of 8.8 kilometers today.
