I celebrated my last holiday in Israel last week, Shavuot. This fun holiday is all about the kibbutzim. Their farming, food, babies, and abundance. We started this holiday by...go ahead, guess...eating. For some reason, to celebrate this harvest holiday, you eat dairy. To be more exact, dairy with carbs. (My kind of holiday) The women of the kibbutz made tons of incredible desserts and the kibbutz had an outdoor movie night. We peaced for the movie since the subtitles were in Hebrew as well as the dialog, great help for us, and got ready to go to our one and only pub. Everyone wears white (like dairy) so we braved the white at the pub and had great time dancing the night away.
Taking a breather after I became a sweat bomb. Israeli heat.
The next day was an outdoor ceremony of sorts with the participation of some of our Nitzotzot pieces. The crowd loved them!
Look at those eyes:)
I think this was my favorite 'together feeling' holiday.
I am going to miss my kibbutz when I leave!
Dad and Noah celebrate the dairy holiday everyday... with Mr. Ben and Mr. Jerry and Ms Haagen Daz and Mr. Breyers. They are faithful worshipers!
