Unfortunately, I grew out of my love for giant, pink, polka-dotted bows.
All the pathos and irony of leaving one’s youth behind is thus implicit in every joyous moment of travel: one knows that the first joy can never be recovered, and the wise traveler learns not to repeat successes but tries new places all the time.

Awwww. this made me cry (I know, no surprise there). I am so glad we took you with us to Jerusalem when you were four years old. At the time I was not sure how much you would remember. But you do remember a lot about the Holy Land and it is so great that you have this opportunity to be there again!
Love it, learn it, live it!!!
PS-Great photo, my new favorite.
These are two really cute photos.
cute!
