Lisa and Yaron were getting married and what could be better than organizing a pre-wedding “get away” weekend with all of their best friends. The turn out was amazing. Over 30 people arrived to the weekend full of good vibes and plenty of energy. The “get away” was a two day weekend during the Rosh Hashana holiday (Sep 14-15, 2007). The plan was simple: meet up on Friday, 11:00am, at Rosh Pina for breakfast at a the beautiful restaurant, Shiri Fridman Bistro. Following breakfast we all went to the camping grounds on the banks of the Jordan river next to Gadots. Michal and I were very concerned that we wont find a place because of the busy weekend, so we left Tel Aviv early to catch a place. Leaving early to catch a place was a smart move, as it was kind of crowded. We managed to catch an amazing place after the second bridge (see the pictures and videos). The location was perfect. We were all alone and we had some trees for shade too. The water was excellent. The evening barbecue was just delicious, much thanks to Noam. And of course Tziv and Tami’s morning after breakfast was just in place. A big thanks to everyone that helped make this amazing weekend happen.
