Uncle Steve in Tel Aviv!

Well... He's actually staying in a town north of Tel Aviv called Herzilya, but that didn't rhyme. 

Turns out by a stroke of luck and some good timing my uncle, Steve, just happened to be in Herzilya on business this week. Raz and I were able to take a drive up to see him on Saturday, and what a grand visit it was! We went to Tapeo, a fantastic Tapas restaurant, and ate ourselves silly. It was lovely... good company, good food, good conversation, and a lovely walk along the beach while the sun was setting. It was so wonderful meeting family so far from home.



I was so excited by the food I forgot to take pictures. 
here's the aftermath. 

delicious empanada 

perfect calamari

Our dessert was Pistachio Brulee with whipped cream and strawberries. 
I can't tell you how happy this made me. Sweet and creamy with a warm nutty after flavor... I was in heaven. 




I really enjoyed this visit. Steve is just wonderful, I always learn new and interesting things when I get to spend time with him. I'm so glad we were lucky enough to find ourselves in the same corner of the world.
