I got up quite early and went for a walk on Harim Road as far as the Chabad synagogue in Shakhamon and back. I stopped by the bakery to get challah, but it hadn't yet arrived, so I had to return there later, between classes, to get it. I took a lovely picture of Venus, the Jordanian mountains, Aqaba, and the gulf about 45 minutes before sunrise, which is today's pic of the day:

I was scheduled to teach 5 units of Berlitz lessons today, but the last lesson (2 units) turned out to be a no-show: 9:00-9:45, 10:00-11:30, and 12:00-1:30.

I had a couple of vegan shnitzels for lunch.

I was lazy in the early afternoon, but I did eventually manage to get all the weekly chores done.

I walked down to Hannah's place for candle lighting and a lovely Shabbat dinner, and we really enjoyed visiting for quite some time. Afterwards, I walked back home by a slightly longer route (mostly following the way the number 2 bus goes) because it was very pleasant out.

I walked a total of 9.4 kilometers.

I got back so late that I didn't write this until the next morning.
