Eurosport...

Hey All,

Something that I miss about living in a country without vinter or snow is the show "Vintersudion", a swedish tv-show that shows all the vinter-sports from skiing downhil to biathlon to snowboarding. It usually aires in the morning til noon on saturday and sundays and are the perfect thing to watch when its cold, dark and windy outside. However here in Israel we have Eurosport that sometimes show what I like, but there is no studio or any interviews or such things which is boring. Right now I'm actually watching the Mens Downhil WorldCup race, to bad the swedish guy failed to complete the track.

On another note Mubarak has now left office in Egypt and in Israel the talk is on about what will come next. Because when Mubarak was in office they knew what Egypt was and how it operated, they also had a peace treaty with Mubarak. Many here are afraid that with him out of office the peace-treaty will follow and then Israel has lost another "friend" in the area and the risk of war or confrontation would increase. So who comes into office next is closely followed by the media. What I think is that if the new Egypt government wants to keep good relations with the US they peace-treaty will stay in place, but If the realtons to the US is not so important the peace treaty might go out the window or become reformed. Only the future will tell, however when a dictator leaves office its always a good day! Now lets see how the egyptians handle their new found "freedom".

This weekend we havent done to much, yesterday we stayed in and made sushi and watched some tv-shows. I also fixed my xbox so it works again =) So no frustration anymore. Work is all the same nothing new. Later today we have a CISV-activity and then afterwards probably dinner and a movie.

Til you read again,
