Dear Aviva and Shmuel,
It was hectic getting back to work and to our everyday routines after our trip to Eretz Yisrael. It was "truly the trip of a lifetime". The three days that we spent with Shmuel touring the Judean Desert and the Negev were exceptional. Shmuel's energy, enthusiasm and knowledge made that part of our journey all the more memorable for us. . .
