In general, I am doing well. I have a nice hotel room, three tasty good meals a day, and excellent room service. However, it is a bit like being in prison as there is very little for me to do other than watching television and reading. This week will be a bit different as my Russian friends are back in Israel and I will take them to lunch and shopping tomorrow and on Friday will do basically the same with my own family. (Both trips are considered inadvisable by the government as they are fairly long as we are supposed to make only short drives because of rocket attacks.)
