Update from Israel

An update from Thulani's host, Rachel, in Israel:
Oooh Thulani has been really busy! We went to Mini Israel which was kind of neat as he did all of Israel without leaving the local area! He managed to fit in an audition for King Kong but some wretched monkey got it but I thought he put in a lot of expression (mainly terrified).



















He also went to a kibbutz. Sadly they are not as prevalent in Israel as they once were but he thought it was very interesting. He wondered why there were no cows or sheeps in the field so I gently explained how hot Israel gets in the summer and we dont like to cook our food alive as it were so they stay nice and cool under cover
 














He had his Shabbat here. He found it weird we dont have television or anything on Shabbat and thought it was boring so like the rest of the family - he got some sleep in.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Today we went to the market by the beach. I took a photo but it was really busy so Thunani was held firmly by the paw behind the camera and didnt appear in the shot, I wouldnt like the little fella to get lost you understand!


Above are some photos though they will also appear in the diary - he is loving his time in Israel though he has asked if when he arrives in Australia, could he have a prawn barbeque or maybe a bacon sandwich? The kosher is driving him a little insane you see .....

Hugs
