Celebrated in America on the last Thursday of November Traditionally, the first Thanksgiving in America was attended by Native Americans and English Pilgrim settlers and held in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621. That first Thanksgiving mirrored ancient harvest feasts such as the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. It was not until 1863, however, in the midst of the American Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the last Thursday of each November as a "day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father". EVENTS Established in 1881 by a Christian couple from Chicago, The American Colony in Jerusalem now houses a peaceful, elegant hotel and restaurant where ‘Jews and Arabs comfortably meet’, along with diplomats from all over the world.

Many years ago, around 200 BCE after the Greeks conquered Judea, a revolt by the Maccabees and the Chasidism (forerunners to the Pharisees) against the assimilation of Hellenistic Jews and the Greek government (Antiochus IV) occurred and was successful. As a result the Temple was taken back and rededicated. At the time of the rededication, there was very little oil left to light the Menorah and keep it burning throughout the night, every night in the Temple. Only one flask of oil was found, enough to keep the Menorah lit for just one night. Miraculously, the oil from the flask burned for 8 days. During Hanukkah, a candle is lit on the Menorah each night, starting with one on the first night culminating with 8 candles on the last night. Each night prayers and songs accompany the lightings. Many celebrate the holiday with fried foods such as potato cakes (Latkes) and doughnuts (Sufganiyot). Small gifts are given to children and games are played using a dreidel. For more details on Hanukkah see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanukkah and http://igoogledisrael.com/2008/12/hannukah-the-festival-of-lights-and-donuts/ This year Hanukkah is celebrated 8 days before Christmas from the evening of December 16th to the evening of December 24th. CHRISTMAS Christmas is a holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus as well as a widely observed cultural holiday. Although the exact date of Jesus’ birth is not known, Christians as well as many non- Christians currently celebrate this occasion on December 25th. Other dates on which Christmas is celebrated include January 6th, 7th or 9th by Eastern Christian churches. Historically, celebrations of Christmas are noted as far back as 354 AD. Many of the current customs surrounding the Christmas holiday developed independently from the celebration of Jesus’ birth. Some of these secular customs include the Christmas tree, mistletoe, gift giving, caroling, family gatherings, seasonal food and drink, Christmas cards, Christmas stockings and Santa Claus. For more information on the history and story of Christmas check the following sites: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas http://www.whychristmas.com/story/the_christmas_story.shtml 3 WHAT’S UP ISRAEL WINTER 2014 HOLIDAY SHOPPING Food Hanukkah – It is customary to eat fried foods or foods baked in oil during Hanukkah. Traditional foods include potato pancakes known as latkes, bimuelos (fritters) and Sufganiyot (doughnuts).

Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

It seems that most of our clientele prefer to travel in the "off season apd not to be involved in the summer rush. There are so many deals to near and far away places that it is no longer feasible to offer "specials" to anywhere —just know that they exist all the time to everywhere!!! This last weekend Carol and I spent a very special 4 days at the new Anassa Hotel — 35 minutes drive from the Paphos Airport in Cyprus, which is in itself only a 45 minute flight from Tel Aviv. I can honestly say that the hotel is without doubt the finest hotel I have ever stayed at — a real masterpiece — on the sea, beautiful setting, great food, but wow, it is expensive!!! — something to save for a special occasion. Give me a call and Til fill you in on all the details.
