Shalom Yaffa-
I know I told you in person, but THANK YOU again for planning such a wonderful trip for us. I know the size of our group was challenging but all things considered, it went very smoothly and everyone enjoyed it immensely. Zvi was such a terrific tour guide and we really enjoyed touring with him. Please say hello to him from us. Moshe was the best bus driver -- we loved him!! The trip really touched all of us, so much so that Eric and I decided separately that we are not going to have a big party in New York for Jesse's bar mitzvah and we are going to concentrate everything in Israel. I look forward to hearing from you and planning this event with you.

Shalom!  Thank you for a trip that was beyond my expectations.  From our greeting in Tel Aviv to our last good-by, everything was planned and executed to perfection.  You worked in so many extra details to make the trip even more special that Bob and I are so very appreciative of all of your efforts on our behalf.  We fell in love with Yael on the first day and Moti seemed to be a magician at times.  All of our accommodations were fabulous.  We feel like we have made new friends and hope to see you all often as you travel to the United States.  Some of our family are already planning their next trip to Israel, so I know we will keep in touch.  Thank you, thank you for everything.  Love, Alice  P.S.  My photograph album was a big and wonderful surprise.

Hello Yael,
I just wanted to thank you again for all your help and support during our visit to Israel.
The setting for the Bat Mitzvah itself could not have been any better and the entire visit was very worthwhile and enjoyable. It was also great to get your perspectives and insights, as someone who was born and raised in Israel, on the overall situation in Israel, and to learn about your family and especially your grandfather (as well as the usual tourist information). I was also very impressed that you had been a paratrooper.
Most importantly, the visit reinforced and strengthened the connection Julia and Sara feel for Israel.
In addition, we consider you a friend and hope to see you again.
Best wishes, 
Bruce,Julia and Sara
