I drove a car today for the first time in nearly 8 months.  (Well, to be completely honest I took a driving test here a few months ago, but I only drove a few blocks, so I don’t think it counts.)

It was wonderful.  I didn’t realize how much I missed driving until I got behind the wheel.  Driving in Israel wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, and I was driving for work, so I had a specific destination. 

A business lunch at an outdoor restaurant, good conversation, and Simon & Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson” playing on the radio as we drove back to work completed a fabulous day.
