Photos of the Lego Exhibition


Hi Everyone!

This afternoon, I read a posting about a one day Lego exhibition
at Dcity in Mishor Adumim. Due to the heat, I was not planning to
go anywhere today but I gave it some thought and I decided to call
an air conditioned cab instead of taking 2 buses.
The exhibition was in the air conditioned food court.
Each exhibit was done by a Lego hobbyist.
It was great seeing the creative models that they built with the
same plastic pieces that I played with many, many years ago.

After I walked around the exhibits, I went outside the mall to see
the Shuk Ramle which comes to Dcity every Monday and Friday.
Walking around in a modern mall and then entering an old style
marketplace made me smile. Afterwards, I went back into the mall
to look at a sculpture exhibit. At the end of my walk, I paid a quick
visit to Max – a large discount store.

I took a cab home and I posted the photos at:

Enjoy the photos.
Please share. Thank You!

Have a good night,

47th Anniversary of Mivtsa Yonatan, Flora Photos and Happy Birthday America

Hi Everyone!

On June 27 1976, an Air France flight from Tel-Aviv to Paris via Athens
was hijacked and forced to land in Entebbe, Uganda.
The Jewish passengers were separated and held hostage in demand
to release many terrorists held in Israeli prisons.
After much debate, the Israeli government sent an elite commando unit
to raid the airfield and release the hostages. The commando unit,
aircraft crews and the rescued hostages landed in Israel on July 4, 1976.
Yonatan Netanyahu, the commander of the first aircraft´s Sayeret Matkal
rescue unit,
was shot and killed while helping hostages return to the aircraft.

“Operation Entebbe” was later named “Operation Yonatan” in honor
of Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Netanyahu z”l.

I created a page with images, newspaper headlines, videos
and articles about the historic Israeli rescue.

May the memory of Yoni Netanyahu be for a blessing,

Today, I took a long walk in Ma’ale Adumim
and took photos of flora. I posted them at:
