I didn't even plan to get up early this morning. I actually woke up fairly early, but I lay in bed quite a long time, not really feeling particularly tired or sleepy, but thinking, planning, relaxing, and just enjoying a quiet, slow beginning for my day.

After breakfast (a little later than usual) I headed into town. First, I needed to withdraw money from my U.S. account to put into my Israeli account. Then I headed over to the pet store (very near the bank) to buy a mouse, which, luckily, they had this week. I then headed home. Along the way, I took several pictures, including today's pic of the day, which I think is the best I've gotten yet of these tiny white flowers that are blooming everywhere now:

I had a salad, quesadillas, beets, and 4 bread sticks for lunch.

In the evening, I took a long circuitous walk to Fay's house, making sure to stop by the post office to pick up a Rosh HaShana gift that Berlitz had sent me some time back, which turned out to be an card with 250 shekels loaded onto it. That will definitely come in handy! Finally, I arrived at Fay's for our weekly play-reading group.

I walked a total of 7.4 kilometers today.
