This week, there was an Anglo Shabbaton on my Yishuv. Basically, on the Yishuv there is "up the hill" and "down the hill" and it's very easy not to know people who live on the other side. Even if they are from one of the 17 English-speaking families here. (We counted over Shabbos, just to see.)
To remedy that, on Friday night everyone davened and ate "up the hill" and on Shabbos day we davened and ate "down the hill." It was great, we met new people, and I know we're going to be friends. The social whirl (dinner, oneg Shabbos, kiddush, lunch) was a little taxing, though. I do best with some time to recuperate between bouts of fun.
