**UPDATED March 31, 2013**
Today is International Tabletop Day! Today I’m headed to Jaffa to play some games in the old port to celebrate. What are you playing today?
Well. Jaffa was PACKED. The parking lot was full to bursting and we couldn’t even get out of the car, so we decided to head straight to Rishon LeZion for our movie (Jack the Giant Slayer — did not like). After the flick, we camped out at Temple Bar, drank gluten free beer, and played Quiddler.
Fun fact: the calligraphy on the cards is based on Celtic illumination, like The Book of Kells, which I saw in Ireland earlier this year.

I remember playing a delightful outdoor game of ROOK with Jon last November in Caesarea, while waiting for a couple of jewelry shoppers – who ultimately were quite successful. Happy memory.
Can’t wait until we can play Rook again. Think I forgot the rules again…
Yahoo! I hear good news abounding! Mom and I just had Easter brunch with J and D and we hear that you guys are soon to be home. Can’t wait to see you both in person.
What a great experience you have made of your time – travel, work responsibilities and growth and managing just the stuff that you have had to to make your way through a different culture all on your own-somes.
You have been an inspiration on so many levels.
Can’t wait for big hugs all round.
