The World Cup in Tel Aviv

Do you know why Tel Aviv is amazing? Because you can sit on the beach at night, watch an enormous big screen where the semi-final of the World Cup is playing (France vs. Portugal) and a waitress walks around and serves you whatever you like, including a drink called Malty, which is like root beer in America, except is tastes like real beer but is non-alcoholic.

Plus, the ocean is beautiful at night...a full moon reflected off the water and there was such a sense of celebration in the air. It's amazing that soccer is such as huge sport world wide except America. And watching soccer outside with friends on the ocean is so much better than watching it in a bar in Boston...

I love Tel Aviv, I'm actually getting a tan for once! Maybe next summer I'll make a film here!

Sounds like you're having a fabulous time. Good!

I need to remember to start using your other e-mail address. Sent a little howdy to your other one, but I don't think you have access to it any more. (Dum da dum doi doi.)
