Just checking in to wish you all a very happy Turkey Day!

I’m currently in Israel celebrating the holiday with my sister and uncle. Here’s a group shot from sunset in Tel Aviv last weekend:

And a few more random moments from our trip…

My sister and me en route to Carmel market in Tel Aviv:

My uncle at the Caesarea ruins:

My sister at Mount Bental in Golan Heights:

And all three of us at the Dead Sea!

We went for a swim float:

We spent yesterday touring the Old City in Jerusalem. Here we are outside the Temple Mount:

And the Wailing Wall:

Last night I returned for a brief stroll around the Wailing Wall and encountered a group of young men singing and dancing:

Our timing is fortuitous — we happen to be here during Hanukkah. Last night we spotted menorahs lit around the Old City.

And I stopped at the Mamilla Mall menorah lighting ceremony, right near our hotel:

To top it all off: the other night at dinner, former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair sat behind us with his security detail. And a couple at another table got engaged. An exciting night.

Wishing you and yours a very happy Thanksgiving… and Hanukkah!
