I'm in Haifa. I think that about sums up the whole of my day.
I went out for coffee with my parents and one of my grandmothers. Then I came back to my Uncle's apartment with Zohar and we've been lazy the whole day.
I counted 7 air raid sirens today. 2 I didn't hear because we were in the mall and so the sirens were drowned out. There were 2 that got me into a bomb shelter and one that occured while I was still in the shelter. One alarm sounded while Zohar and I were walking back from the Grand Canyon (it's a mall near the apartment). They're scarier when there's nowhere to stay protected around. The last one didn't hit close to me, but my cousin Lilach got caught by it. It hit the building she lives in (she also happens to be living in the exact same apartment my Mother and Uncle grew up in) and blew out the windows.
Luckily, Lilach, her kids and her husband are all safe.
Only 7 days till the wedding which means 11 days until I come home.
I'm looking forward to uninterrupted sleep, WoW and most importantly my "2 wives" :P (by the way, my Father tells the story here AND it's in Hebrew).
LOVE FOR MEMMIE!!
