Jeurusalem, Israel
Just came back from a wonderful ten days in north Italy!…
So don’t I write you on it? – Because I want to see what I am writing on, but my memory card can’t be recognized =( I hope the company I send it to will save some of the pictures…
Anyway I wanted to tell you that you have a Jewish name! or at least a Jewish root 🙂
I found it out reading about The Merchant of Venice on Wikipedia because we have been to Venice. The daughter of Shylock (the Jewish Merchant) is named also Jessica. when I read it in Hebrew it was Written as “Jessica (Iscah)- the daughter of Shylock”, And it really does make a lot of sense. Remember that a lot of Hebrew names are changed because the Latins speakers don’t pronounce the y, and change the Y into J. Like in Jhonatan (we say Yonatan)
I never thought about it ’cause the Hebrew name is really rare (first and only person I knew with that name is one of my lectures).
Aba brought Guri an Image projector for his friend wedding. Ima decided we need to say Sound of Music because Dana didn’t watch it.

You knew Ima thing about old movies we all have to see… When we tried to convince Ima that Dana did watch it – Dana ruined everything when said that is the film with the sings and go down the chimney (of course she meant she meant Mary Poppins). So now I am stuck with the song about Maria stuck in head…

Take Care

The scene Ima wanted to see, because she read that it was so cold when they filmed the kids, they had to make them tipsy so they won't feel it  - Sound of MusicThe scene Ima wanted to see, because she read that it was so cold when they filmed the kids, they had to make them tipsy so they won’t feel it
