shakatanyOn Saturday and Tuesday I again rented a bicycle and rode the 6-mile loop in Central Park. I'm so pleased that I can handle it without feeling fatigued or sore the day after especially as I didn't dismount once to walk up a hill. I think my body is in shape for my upcoming trip to Fargo as we often go hiking. The only problem arose on Saturday when, as I was switching gears, the chain slipped. As we struggled to reattach it, getting our hands nice and greasy, a good Samaritan passed by and easily reattached it. I still have a spot grease under one fingernail that I can't get to and will just have to let it grow out.
Did you hear about the true case of a "Home Alone" incident? An ultra-Orthodox couple in Israel left their 3-year old daughter behind at the airport when they boarded their flight to Paris with their four sons!! They remained unaware they had boarded the aircraft with only four children instead of five until they were informed by cabin staff after 40 minutes in the air. What kind of parents are they that they would forget to check they had all their children? Was it because she was a girl and not as important as their sons? Read about it here.
For anyone out there having trouble with trolls I'd like to present this:
