In Honor of Yom Haatzmaut

So no pictures of flags, fireworks or people dancing in the street, although we heard it all last night. We're headed out in a bit for a BBQ, of course, but for now I want to post about one of our favorite things in Israel, the strawberries.

They've been in season since Chanuka, and from what I understand the season's ending now, so goodbye strawberries. You've been a great snack. And so much better then the strawberries we have in the US. So yay Israel!

In order to make up for yesterday's lack of photos of Eitan post, here are some shots of Eitan enjoying lots of the last batch of our shuk "bawbeies"

PS- Just a scene from our house now, no pictures...Ami woke up and saw the Caps (DC's hockey team) won last night/this morning for us in OT, game 7 of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs sending them to advance. He proceeds to scream OT, OT, OT, and Eitan repeats OT OT OT...his friends in NY call- they're out celebrating, and he's now wearing his Ovie jersey, taking shots of vodka with them for breakfast.  It's going to be an interesting day.
