Why the Blog?

These days everyone wants to travel the world. As kids and teens we dream about it. As adults we might often think about it, but never find the time. We dream, but few of us ever reach our goal. I am one of those few.
Soon, starting September 4 , my dad and I are going overseas to three places-Israel, Thailand and Prague, Czech Republic. Well, those are where our homes are going to be, but we will be traveling in Egypt, Sweden, and other places. We will stay in each place for about three months.
I am an eleven-year-old girl named Rachael. My father is Philip and my mother(who is not coming for the whole trip but is visiting) is Margie. In this blog I will keep you posted about events. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Happy New Year!

Happy Rosh Hashanah (Rush-a-shone-a, happy new year)! Today is the start of the year five thousand, seven hundred and sixty-eight. In Jewish mythology, year five thousand, seven hundred and sixty-eight means that it was five thousand, seven hundred and sixty-eight years since God created Adam and Eve.
Last night there was a party, which I went to. Dad didn't go, since he threw out his back Tuesday night. It was very fun. There was all kinds of weird foods to try, and new stuff to do...everything, like apple dipped in honey, was "sweet for the New Year". Hope y'all out there have a great year!
