Haifa, Israel
19th Day of Operation Protective Edge
This is Sabbath and there is a cease fire, meaning no deadly events. Nathan was supposed to be released and to get home today and Guri will probably be released tomorrow. So today will be a truly day of rest.
If you think that make any difference – new names of fallen soldiers appears in the news while we spend our time on the beach and eating stakes in the near by Restaurant….
Take Care
