israel through reese's eyes


(Editors Note:…Today’s Blog (or Log as Reese calls it) is going to be as seen through the eyes of a 3 ¾ year old. Besides a Chucky Cheese worker, Reese wants to be a photographer just like her Uncle Darin so all the pictures will be taken with a pink Fisherprice (1 megapixel) camera held dear to Reese. So don’t mind the random nature of this post but enjoy the simplicity of a little girl that sees things the same no matter what side of the ocean she is on.)

there are lots of cats in israel. they are not people’s pets. mom & dad say that i am not allowed to touch them. they live all over the ground. as we walk i like to look for them. we also see lots of birds in cages – big & little.

the moms and girls in israel wear lots of pants (editors note – they actually wear dresses or skirts – not sure why she said that). the daddies and boys wear pants and hats.

we eat a lot of eggs, watermelon, and we even eat little hotdogs for breakfast. and mostly everyday we get to have a popcycle on days mommy says it is OK

it is always sunny, windy & hot

there are lots of strangers here – they are nice. mommy makes me be friendly when i am shy. sometimes they even kiss my cheek. i have an emergency whistle to blow when there is an emergency & mommy or daddy isn’t there. one stranger gave me a camel – just a pretend one.

there is a special wall where people pray - we can pray anywhere we want not just at the wall. carter and me chased some birds there

on our last day I get to buy some treats. i want to buy some bracelets and some special containers (editor's note - have no idea what that is!)

for fathers day i bought daddy some candy and a shirt. daddy shared the candy with me. me and carter even drew a picture for him. mine had lots of sheep with coulorfuls.

the weirdest thing i saw was a big piece of meat that looked like a turkey, but it was just meat (editors note- sheep actually)

i miss my other littlest pet shops. i was only allowed to bring a few. i miss lewis and my big dora. i would like to live in canada but visit israel lots. see you soon!

I'm loving the blog Michelle and Jeff. And Reese, I loved your entry! I'm glad to see things through your eyes. I can't wait to see you again!
the videos are great too - makes the distance feel less, and makes it somehow feels like we can share more in your experience even while you're there.
Love you!
