Hi,
After spending a nice noon at our friends house in Zikhron Ya’akov, we had spent couple of hours walking around the town historical center. This is a small street with the Halutzim houses along the it. (it ended great, as we went drive home at 4 o’clock. Because Jannaeus and Mindal would have fallen asleep and we would ended going to sleep at midnight).
