July 2014 Mini-DO
 
THIS POST HAS BEEN EDITED:

WHAT ARE PEOPLE'S THOUGHTS FOR ANOTHER MINI-DO?

I said that since my sons are in Israel, things would have to be at a level where I would feel the need to pull my sons out, in order for me to consider not going. That said, Modiin has thus far been pretty quiet whereas Tel Aviv has seen more activity. Am I nuts or simply Israeli?

Modiin also has an Iron Dome battery (though so does Tel Aviv). Tel Aviv is more classically "Israeli." I don't think they get their shock value when they say "Modiin."

Enjoy! Maybe it's time for another mini-DO!

Happy to join. Too busy dealing with my son's Bar Mitzvah to organize.

Mazal tov! This calls for a real celebration :)

Mazel Tov. I'll be in Israel in 8 days--who knows, I can try again to maybe attend.

I work here. So we really could have a mini do. Anyone interested?

I'd be more interested in heading back to Jems or somewhere in Tel Aviv or Petach Tikva. Modiin might be harder to get to

Count me in.

joshwex90 Jul 15, 2014 12:15 pm

damaxer91 Jul 15, 2014 12:28 pm

I'm in for any of these - Modiin would be great, though Tel Aviv area also fine. Less sirens in Modiin!
Josh - there's a very good train service from Tel Aviv to Modiin....

That works if it's in the mall if I'm not mistaken. Are there good places there to get together?

The train station is next door to the mall

There are frequent trains from Tel Aviv to Moddin. There currently is no train service from Jerusalem to anywhere but there is frequent bus service by the Kavim company from the CBS and/or Binyanya Ha'uma area

There are plently of Kosher cafes in the mall also
