Here we are! Back to the Land! We are all very happy to see everyone again. And solely minutes after our reunion with the family, we get our first medical assessment. I was joking that both Emmanuel and I's accidents were planned to have to visit the best doctors ever, since my father-in-law and his nephew are both orthopedists. Upon looking at the X-rays, Sabah confirmed that Emmanuel is ready to loose his cast, and proceeds to removes it right there. My foot, on the other hand, needs the super-booth as indicated.
The rest of the week was spend among family - playing, eating, chatting, walking, shopping, eating, cooking, and chatting even more. The kids had a seriously good amount of fun, it is great to see that the connection is there despite the distances. Traditional dinners at home and at Gocha, afternoons playing with the cousins, reunion with with old friends, we just did not have enough time, and we enjoyed every minute of it!
The kids had a few moments of grace, spoiled like ratinhos by their aunts and granny Safda. They could not ask for more, it was too much!
In the end we did not escape the bad weather; it was cold, windy, rainy, nothing like the usual Tel Aviv Spring I know. My dream to sit every morning by the beach did not materialized until the last morning where, despite the need to pack our millions gifts and purchases, I pulled my little boys by the water. It was well worth it.
