Fruit Trees

After a very rocky start, things are calming down for the greater OOS family. They are in their temporary apartment and after one night where Shmuel slept on a matress on the floor were able to borrow a port-o-crib. (El Al has not yet found their missing bag; I suspect someone else took it).

Yesterday, after finally getting some sleep, they walked over to their real apartment in Nachlaot to check it out. (Until then they had only seen pictures and gotten an eyewitness report from one of my buddies).

The great news is that they were delighted by what they saw. It exceeded their expectations and they are very excited about moving in on Monday.

But what totally blew them away was the presence of a lemon tree and a cherry tree right in their courtyard. Fruit bearing trees right outside their apartment. When they saw that, they knew they were home.
