    • Your album is superb Yair. You've gotten a nice variety of photos and all very interesting and colorful. I will have to Google Purim since I have no clue what it is. But, it looks like a lot of participation by many nationalities. Thanks for letting us in on your holiday celebration. - DeeAnne

    • album of oertlif

    • Bonjour Yair! Really a great event! Is the parade restricted to Holon, or is here the most vivid, beautiful, with enthousiasm prepared parade? Looking at the pictures -fortunately favored by a sunny day! - one feels a kind of contamination, would like to participate! - Thank you! Best wishes as ever: Kaethi and Henri P.S. Thank you for your today's mail concerning Tsedek.

    • Hello Yair! What a beautiful album you have here! Full of color, beauty and joy. And the weather seemed to be very nice. I'm really busy these last weeks, that's why I'm not visiting much. Thank you so much for your visit to my beach albums and for the nice comments. The beach is in Riviera Maya and belongs to Gran Bahia Principe resort. I wish I was there now:) I must go out now. Take care, my friend, have a nice week! Rosa

    • album of actionandy

    • Thank you for sharing a part of the world I have yet to go to. Not only have you provided a journey but a little bit of history. I believe Purim is a time of celebration; feasting and gladness for the survival of the Jews in Persia as we read about Mordecai in the book of Esther. Thanks for the photos, the journey, and the history - Andy
