I taught 4 units of Berlitz lessons, back-to-back, today: 9:00-10:30 and 10:30-12:00.
I got the trash and recycling taken out before my lessons, and I did the rest of the weekly chores afterwards.
In the afternoon, I completed work on my music production project and submitted it. It was really only supposed to be a rough draft, but, in fact, it's all finished. Then I proceeded to watch the rest of the videos for the other weeks. I think that, since I actually finished the Esa Einai project, I'm going to BaShana HaBa'a for my final project, and I'll submit it for weeks 3 and 4. That will mean that I need to record tomorrow, though. But I think it will be interesting.
I deliberately ate lunch VERY late today, and I had an extra large one: a salad, rice, 2 shnitzels, a small whole-wheat challah (all of it), and breadsticks. I decided today that I would fast for Yom Kippur (except for drinking plenty of water). I don't think it will be that difficult. I'll let you know tomorrow evening how it went.
After lighting Shabbat/holiday candles, I set out on a walk. There was still some nice light on the Jordanian mountains across the valley, so I took several nice shots of that, including today's pic of the day:
The main reason I went out, though, was to see all the kids (and some others, as well) enjoying riding bikes, scooters, rollerblades, etc. in the streets. Yom Kippur here in Israel is unlike any day at all anywhere else in the entire world. There is essentially NO motorized traffic on the roads at all, not even on the highways. It's a really nice scene. I took a bunch of pictures this evening, and, of course, I'll go out and take many more tomorrow during the day.
I walked a total of 3.7 kilometers today.
