Well, we're gearing up for Sukkhot, a Jewish harvest festival that lasts a week. To kick things off, starting on Wednesday night we can't do any work until Saturday night, so Angie and I spent all yesterday getting food around. Think Thanksgiving for three days, and you can't do any more cooking once it starts. We still have some cooking to do, but we're pretty much ready. Also tonight, we're going to see 'The Barber of Seville' at the Marinksy concert hall, which will be Angie's first opera.
Lets see...In other news, I went to an Aikido class for the Yeshiva boys on Sunday. That was ok, a nice long (2 hrs) class and a good work out, but I like our dojo better. Six 14 year olds all getting to pretend to be Bruce Lee in a small room. I also just wrote to another dojo in town, I'm waiting to see what they have to say about prices and all.
Mmmmmm, Italian barbers and a prolonged thanksgiving? Sounds like a magical awesome time. Since it is Russia, do you watch Russian football instead? For clarification, Russian football is like regular footy, only with a rock as the ball because it's Russia.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Aikido, opera and Sukkot in Russia. Why the hell not? :) Guys, I wish you a wonderful time over there. Give my greetings, kisses and blessings to your family, Nathan...
