Everyday Ezra #40

We spent our first Shabbat in Modiin.  It was very fun.  It was also fun because we had a deli lunch.  For the dinner we went to my parents' friends' house.  Their dinner was very yummy.  After I was done with dinner I went downstairs.  Downstairs we played doctor.  I was the patient.  I was in the hospital because I got a bite from a Russell's viper.  I will post soon.  I promise.  But anyways, promises are made to be broken.  Signing off, Ezra.

Thursday was not a very good day.  We just brought stuff to this place that I am sitting in right now, our new apartment.  In the evening it was not bad at all, it was very tasty because we went to a bbq at my uncle and aunt's house.  Before and after dinner we played Minecraft.   I'll post again soon, signing off, Ezra.

Today we went to see Shakespeare in the Park.  We saw the play "Much Ado About Nothing".  It was seriously, extremely awesome.  It was even in motion, so that you go to different places in the park to see different scenes.  At the end of the play I saw bats, but not as many as at the art fair.  I will post soon, signing off, Ezra.

Tuesday wasn't very exciting except for the end.  The end is this: we went to visit a friend of my Ima's.  We stayed there for 15 minutes and then after those 15 minutes, we went to a park.  After the park we went back to their apartment and had dinner.  Dinner was hollow spaghetti with ravioli and sauce.  After that we played with a microphone.  Then we played on a little computer thingamabob.  Then we went home.  I thought that I had a great day.  I'll post soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

On Sunday we went to a swimming pool at Ramat Rachel.  When we got there, we went to the water slide.  After we went on the water slides about 15 times, we went back and had lunch.  Then we went to the newest pool.  We stayed at the newest pool for around half an hour, 45 minutes.  After we were there, we went back to the water slide.  Then I felt done with the water slide and I went back to the third pool.  Then Gavi came back with the other kids we were with.  We all went back to the third pool.  Then we went back to our chairs. Then the other family left.  We went back the pool for a 
little bit.  Then back to the chairs for a little bit.  Then it was time to go back home.  I'll post soon, signing off, Ezra.

Everyday Ezra #34

It has been a long time since I posted so these next few posts will be combined posts.  

Last Friday (August 17), we went to our apartment in Modiin.  After the apartment we went to Hasmonaim.  We spent all of Shabbat in Hasmonaim with our cousins.  The next morning my brother and I woke up early then we went downstairs to our parent's room.   After we were done there, we went our and my brother and I played a game of chess.  It was a draw.  Then we had breakfast and went to shul.  After shul, we came home to have lunch.  After lunch, Gavi and I learned a new game called Abalone.  Then my brother and I went to some other kids' house.  It was not very fun.  A little bit after we came back Shabbat was over and it was time for us to leave.  Then we left. Bye bye for now.  Signing off, Ezra.

Everyday Ezra #33

Today it was Abba's birthday.  For his present we made a scavenger hunt, and it led him to a mysterious box in our cabinet.  On it, it said "50 of 50".  It came with a spoon.  When he opened it he found black beans.  Then he started digging.  After he dug out all the beans he found a cardboard: Dark Tower, beer man, Phish, a beetle playing guitar, the Tardis,  2 happy birthday people, a gorilla, a mr. Coke man, a flatiron steak, and a dolphin.

After lunch we went to the Kotel Tunnel Tours.  The tour was done very, very well.  There was even an electric model of the Kotel over many years.  At the end we went through an aqueduct with no water.  At the end we went to a cistern.

Then we went back out of the Old City and had dinner.  At the restaurant we got mixed meat for 2-3 people.  It was all different types of steak.  The steak was very yummy.  My brother and I also had soda.  I had Fanta and my brother had 7up.  When we were all done the waiter gave me and my brother bubbles.

I'll post soon.  Signing off, Ezra.
Everyday Ezra #32

Today we went to Ein Yael.  Ein Yael is a living museum.  It was not a success.  The only fun thing was building a pan flute.  The pan flute was made out of bamboo.  That was pretty much the only fun I had.  The other two things were pottery and archery and making pita.  Making pita had some technical difficulties.  I will post soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

Everyday Ezra #31

The only exciting part about today was going to the art fair.  At the art fair, we bought a wooden helix spinner.
After we were done walking around at the art fair, we went to the concert by Eviatar Banai.  But before we saw the concert, we saw bats, and lots of them.  At least 56.  We did not see the whole concert because it started at 9pm.  That is pretty much it.  Signing off, Ezra.

This is my brother with a frog in his hand.
Today we went to a national park Ein Hemed. There I found a pond.  Then my brother and I went to the pond and caught frogs.
This is me and my brother looking for frogs.

 
After that we went to the crusader farm.  It was over 1000 years old.  After we walked around the crusader farm, we went to a picnic bench and had lunch.  At lunch we said "Isn't it so nice being in nature?" And then we heard speakers.  On second thought, we aren't in nature.  After we ate lunch, my brother and I went down to a stream, and we followed it to the end.  When we came back from the stream, there was another set of little ponds.  

After we were done at those ponds, we went back to where we started and went to our apartment in Modiin.  We haven't move in yet, but we did bring some of our duffels, to put some of our stuff in the apartment. While we were there the people with the fridge, washing machine, and dryer came and brought them. 

I'll post soon. Signing off, Ezra

On Shabbat we went to a walkway and my brother and I went to a playground thingy-ma-bob.  It was very little and kind of weird.  Then we went to a different place, it was also like a playground thingy-ma-bob.  After that we went home, then we legoed.  Then we had lunch.  That was mostly all we did on Shabbat.

Today (Thursday) we went to Haifa on a train.  In Haifa we did lots of things.  One of them was going to the science museum called the madatek.  These are some of the things that I did at the madatek:

I lay on a bed of nails;













I lost my body;
 












I went in a helicopter;





..and did many other things.  

Then we took the train back to Modiin and went to a restaurant named Angelos.  I had pizza.  It was very tasty.  After that we went to our future apartment to get the keys.  I'll post more soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

Today (Wednesday) we went shopping for school supplies.  We got all of the art materials.  We did not get any of the books.  A few of the art supplies that we got are a big paper carrier and large paper to fit in it and oil pastels.  Not much else happened Wednesday.  I am very sleepy.  I will post soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

Today we went to some springs.  At the springs Ima held onto my hands and I dove in.  The only reason I was holding on was because the water was deeper than me.  After that we had lunch.  After that we went to an aqueduct that was built 2000 years ago.  We were able to go into it and we walked through the whole thing.  It was very dark and the water was very, very, very cold.  When you got out, you got up a big ladder and then there was a path that you went on.  Then you followed the path all the way back to where to the tunnel started.  After that we got ice cream.  I got a Cornetto Classic.  After I was finished eating that we went home, and then I had chocolate milk, and then I blogged this blog post.  I'll post soon, signing off, Ezra.
Everyday Ezra #24

Today we went to the Old City.  We went on the Ramparts Walk.  It was on the walls around Jerusalem.  It was very high up, 68 stairs up at first.  From the walls I saw: graveyards, a police station with horses, a windmill, a mall, a wedding, and bar mitzvas.  We saw some stairs and stones.  After that we went to the Kotel and then had lunch.  Then we got ice cream.  I got Coffee and Oreo ice creams. I am ready to fall asleep right now.  Good night and see you later.  I'll post soon, signing off, Ezra.
Everyday Ezra #23

Today we went to Modiin in the morning.  After that we ran errands.  We got appliances: a washing machine, a dryer, and a fridge.  After that we got gas masks and milk.  That's pretty much all I have to say.  I'll post in a few seconds, signing off, Ezra.

Today (Shabbat) we went to Yedidya all together.  We were at shul for most of it.  After that, we went home and had lunch.  After lunch, Gavi and I legoed.  After that Ima and I walked to the tayelet.  At the tayelet we saw the old city, the Dome of the Rock,the valley, and the road.  After that it was havdala and we watched some of the olympics.  I noticed one of my front teeth was bleeding a little; it is about to fall out!  Yank!  Twist twist twist!

Everyday Ezra #20

Today I went to camp again.  It was the best day so far, and I am not going anymore, which I am also very happy about.  Today we went to the pool.  At the pool Gavi's friend's brother got us a hot cocoa with extra sugar from the vending machine outside of the pool because Gavi and I did not go swimming.  Tonight we are going to go out to dinner at a place called Avazi.  We aren't positive we will go there, but we are pretty sure.  Camp was not very fun, again.  I did not learn anything, again.  At the end of the day we went to art and got tissue paper and pipe cleaner butterflies.  Then when we were about to go home, we got popsicles.  The popsicles were very yummy.  I'll post soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

Everyday Ezra #19

Today the day at camp was much better than the first day.  We thought we were going to the swimming pool today. We went in and changed into swimtrunks, and then we were told to get back and change into regular clothes.  While I was partly changed, I had a small fight.  That made my day because someone tried to push me around, and I punched him hard in the chest.  He pushed me back and then it was over.  I was not hurt.  I am happy that I defended myself.  After that we went back to the class and we "learned" something, but I did not because I already knew it.  Tomorrow I hope I will learn something.  I'll post again soon.  Signing off, Ezra.

Today (Tuesday), we were forced to go to camp again.  My brother gave me his watch and it helped me very much to know what time it was.  Today was a little bit better than the first day.  

After camp was done, we went to a park in Modiin.  There were very high up slides.  Instead of a short cut to get to the top, there is a long cut that gets you less tired.  It may take longer but it is easier to get to.  I almost got lost the first time getting to the top!  You go up a ladder, then you crawl into the tunnels, and then you need to stay in the green tunnels, and then you get out in a ladder.  After we played on the playground we had a picnic dinner.  I will post about today (Wednesday) in a few seconds.  Signing off, Ezra.
