#ShabbatShalom : A Good Week

This week we had friends over for lunch after Kindergarten-camp twice, we went to the zoo, and at Moonlight Movies we stayed for the whole film for the first time. One of the girls had a birthday and they brought down a birthday cake to share with everyone. Candles, singing Happy Birthday, warm fuzzy neighbourly feelings all round. It was a personal first for me too. After 25 years in this country I watched my first ever whole film in Hebrew without subtitles - and could follow the plot. OK so How To Train Your Dragon doesn't have such a complicated plot but still.




Shabbat Shalom

  3. Well I'm impressed you understood "How to Train Your Dragon" in Hebrew-some pretty technical vocab in there if i remember rightly!! Love this way of getting to know your neighbours. Such a great idea. How is the movie chose each time?

    1. You don't need to understand every word - just the gist as you follow the pictures. :) The organising committee collected eight suitable movies at the start and agreed on them. Each week a different family 'hosts' - that means they set it up and do whatever extras they like. The host family chooses from the remaining movies.
