The book reveals details never previously documented and provides a valuable new perspective on Israel’s birth and struggle for survival. It includes eye witness reports by active participants in the events. While written mainly through South African eyes, the book also contains gripping anecdotes about volunteers from the USA, Britain and other countries. It throws new light on important events and personalities of the time.

Carol and 1 have been here mainly to check out hotels for a few incentives I will be operating this year. One really doesn't have to travel far to dis cover a new place with excellent hotels, good food and just that "change" that we all need every so often. Prices for packages are also pretty cheap - $350 for a 3 night stay with bed and breakfast (may change in the season). I even discovered a genuine Lawn Bowls Green in Aya Napa!!! and for the Golfers - head for Phaphos. This year looks like we will see most prices remaining stable for all Euro pean and American flights or packages. I really don't have to tempt you with cheap prices. I suppose that you just have to make the decision as to where and when. Last month the call of Africa lured us back to Kenya and then on to Tanza nia, a previous "Off Limits" destination.
