Very nice not to have to get up for classes early. I did get up to get some stuff done and go to a meeting cross Jewish dialogue group. On my way to the meeting, which was really far away, I walked past Cafe Hillel where I noticed Yarzheit(memorial) candles burning. I looked at the memorial plaque next to the restaurant to see that this is the two year memorial. Took a moment to remember.

The meeting of the Jerusalem Leadership Institute was really great. Jewish Americans from all different backgrounds all interested in learning more about each other! I joined the committee to help identify different opportunities and activities going on in Jerusalem.

Came home and got ready for Shabbat. Made Mom's cucumber salad for dinner tonight. Grandma hope you are proud! Went to Kol Haneshama with Rachel A. and Jason. Had a nice time. There was a stray cat and dog that came into services. The cat sat next to Jason for a bit! Have to let them know to come back for Parshat Noah!

Had a lovely dinner at Rachel A. and Dena's. Jake, Jason, Emily D., Jess, and Michael were there. We played Contact was fun.
