La Paz and LEL HASEDER

La Paz is a market city. Every where you go you see people selling everything. The city is not as nice as Sucre but its fun just to wonder between the stands and buy loads of things, mostly presents.
We are staying on a street just like the Kawasan in Bankok. Almost everyone is Israeli here and it is rare to see a tourist from another country. All we do all day is wonder around between the rain drops and try to buy as much as possible.

Yesterday we did LEL HASEDER with 600 other people in BET HABAD. It was a big balagan. We were the first to get there so we could get the best seats. The Rabbi asked us to help him. We took care of all the people giving them a bottle of wine, HAGADA and telling them where to sit. Hilla got to meet a childhood friend that she didn't see since she was 10 years old.
Although it was loud and a total mess, it was a great experience. Ophir, you would have loved it. We dont have a lot a pics because cameras were not aloud.

hi there,

as i can see, you guys have a lot of fun. everytime i look at your pics, my first thought is: the next trip i'll make is a trip to south america, though it seems to be very cold there, except of the northern countries. i wish you all the best and enjoy your time.

LOL... what a great pic you have with the big KIPA, look just like the guys who singing in the street "Mashiach Mashiach ohi ohi yo".

Did you get any tips from the israelis as being their waitress ?

BTW: Maccabi was defeated by CSKA.
Maccabi lost 3 games in a row and
we probably gonna lose the second game to CSKA which means no Final Four for us :-(
