All sugared up…

Took the kids to the street festival on Emek Refaim. 

I took the girls out for ice cream early in our trip.  At Aldo, I got them us a Belgian waffle with two scoops of ice cream (Twix and Ferro Rocher if you have to ask.)  Before the middle one started eating I said to her "just remember the sugar is going to make you jump, so no jumping in the street."  She asked me where the sugar was…I didn’t even know what to say. 

 As soon as she finished her last bite, she got up and ran for the door.  I asked her where she was going, and she said she was just going to dance by the door.  Was I right, or was I right?!

Anyway, the previous day, we had seen some dancers from Taranula Dance Group rehearsing in the park, and they told us they would be performing at the fair.  Watching them dance was really interesting, especially for the eldest.  They really use their whole bodies, but it isn’t sexualized.

 You can see more here.  It is in Hebrew, but I think you can get enough of a feel for it even without knowing Hebrew.

Dang, tried twice to embed, it just isn’t happening.  Here is the link..take a look.
