Day 136 (Shabbos)

Excitement of excitements: an ISRAELI couple who lives on kibbutz invited us to eat lunch with them this week! The couple in question used to live downstairs from us, but moved to a bigger place. So we and the other young-couple-with-child in our building had lunch with them, and it was very nice and friendly. Interestingly, while I understand about 90% of a Hebrew novel, I'd guess I only understood about 40% of the bouncing conversation. Except when they paused to catch me up, when I bounced back to nearly 100%. I'm gettin' there, though!
