Mount Meron

<h1>Benaya’s Upsherin </h1>
<h2>Mount Meron, Israel </h2>
<p>So glad we got to be apart of Benaya’s Upsherin In Mount Meron which has a special significance in Jewish religious tradition and parts of it have been declared a nature reserve.</p>
<p>The village of <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meron_(village)">Meron</a> and the <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomb_of_Rabbi_Shimon_bar_Yochai">tomb of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai</a> are on Mount Meron. Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai was one of the most eminent disciples of <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbi_Akiva">Rabbi Akiva</a>, and attributed by many <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_Judaism">Orthodox Jews</a> with the authorship of the <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zohar">Zohar</a>, the chief work of <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabbalah">Kabbalah</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upsherin">Upsherin</a> , is a haircutting ceremony￼ observed by a wide cross-section of Jews and is particularly popular in Haredi Jewish<a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism"> </a>communities. It is typically held when a boy turns three years old. Among those who practice the upsherin, the male infant does not have his hair cut until this ceremony.</p>
<p>In the Bible, human life is sometimes compared to the growth of trees.[10] According to <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviticus">Leviticus</a> 19:23, one is not permitted to eat the fruit that grows on a tree for the first three years. Some Jews apply this principle to cutting a child's hair. Thus little boys are not given their first haircut until the age of three. To continue the analogy, it is hoped that the child, like a tree that grows tall and eventually produces fruit, will grow in knowledge and good deeds, and someday have a family of his own. Hasidic Rabbis have made this comparison, and in some communities a boy before his first haircut is referred to as orlah, as we refer to a tree in its early years.</p>
<p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chabad">Chabad</a> Hasidim have another explanation.[11]</p>
<p>For the first three years of life, a child absorbs the surrounding sights and sounds and the parents' loving care. The child is a receiver, not yet ready to give. At the age of three, children’s education takes a leap—they are now ready to produce and share their unique gifts."</p>

<p>After Benaya’s Ushperin, Nati and Kim hosted everyone for an incredible lunch at Lueria Winery. Family, friends, food and wine! Great first day out in Israel 🍷🔥</p>
<p>Thank you Douieb Family! </p>

<h1>Ready for takeoff!✈️</h1>
<p>Headed to Dallas for the weekend! My first trip on an airplane since before the pandemic - what a trip! Our flight got delayed by 2 hours due to having to wait for someone to be escorted off the plane by paramedics. Fortunately we had a great 3 hour flight and landed safely!</p>

<p>Thursday night we had dinner and drinks at a great restaurant. Learned that my new favorite drink in Texas is a “Ranch Water” which essentially is a tequila soda with lime, but I sounded silly ordering that when it had its own special name 😋</p>

<p>And Maorr finally reunited with one of his good friends from college! So so nice!🤍</p>

<h1>Friday night!</h1>
<p>Dinner before the Mavericks game. </p>

<p>This was the first Mavericks game with the stadium being open at full capacity. Was so crazy being in this type of environment for the first time in a while, but SO fun! The crowd was going CRAZY. </p>

<p>The real star of the show, who I fan-girled the most over…Mark Cuban! </p>

<p>Our hosts also had the most beautiful sweet pup named Maverick. Even my allergies could not keep me away from him! </p>

<h1>Saturday☀️</h1>
<p>We spent the day by the pool at Maorr’s friend, Collin, dads house. It was absolutely stunning as you can tell! </p>

<p>Headed home! After an amazing and awesome long weekend in Dallas, it was time to board our flight and head back home to LA. Thankfully no delays this time. </p>

<p>The best part was landing and bumping into my dad, stepmom, and sister at the airport after not seeing them for 2 weeks! We landed at the exact same time🤗</p>

Egypt

<h1>EGYPT</h1>
<p>Egypt, a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East, dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including Giza's colossal Pyramids and Great Sphinx as well as Luxor's hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs. The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks like Muhammad Ali Mosque and the Egyptian Museum, a trove of antiquities. ―Google</p>

<h1><em>“Most dangerous hike in the world”</em></h1>
<p><em>(Pre-renovation)</em></p>

<p>This hike used to be the most dangerous hike in the world before it was shut down and revamped in 2015 (after too many deaths...).</p>
<p>Check out <a href="https://youtu.be/ZmDhRvvs5Xw">what it used to look like</a>.</p>
<p>This place was created in the early 1900’s and you can tell from looking at it... but what a beautiful view!</p>
