Last week we scuttled our plans for a ferry to Italy in favor of returning from Morocco via Spain, leaving our car in Cambrils, and heading to Israel by plane. Thus, we spent several pleasurable days in Casablanca tying up loose ends, and then drove to Tanger for our ferry. Leaving Morocco was a bit intense for Haim, we mis-read and accidentally overstayed his visa, so there was a bit of "drama" at the border...in the end however they left the visit to the courts as an idle threat, and settled instead for a signed document stating that the over-stay was a mistake not to be repeated. Haim was quite relieved to be back on Spanish soil.
After driving about 1000 km in 24 hours, we arrived to Cambrils where we quickly regrouped for a flight to Israel. Our new nephew was born on Wednesday morning and we arrived to Israel early on Friday. Our arrival was a joyous surprise to most everyone....we especially liked ringing Ayala's (Haim's sister) doorbell and leaving Maya out front! We have been "camping" at Haim'saccommodations tomorrow.
Maya has really enjoyed visiting all of her cousins, running around with the older ones, and watching the new baby nurse...which she is totally fascinated by...she's seen lots of kids her age nurse, but never a small baby.
Not sure what our plans are after the next week or 2, but for now we are really enjoying some family time, and some well needed rest! parents for a couple of days, but will move to more private
