...And We're Back! And A Quick Story About the Shuk

Hooray! After a few action packed weeks, our internet has been restored! We have lots of videos, pictures, and stories to tell from the last two weeks. For now, just a quick one:

Today at the Shuk, I got the following at one store:
  • 8 tomatoes
  • 6 big cucumbers (well, normal American size, big for Israeli standards)
  • 3 small onions
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 orange bell pepper
Now, how much would you pay for all of this at, say, Von's or Ralph's? 10 bucks? Easily, if things weren't on sale. I didn't pay that.

I paid 13.80 NIS. Or, about $4.06.

I love the Shuk.
