So many reasons to make aliyah!

Finally sent in our aliyah application! Don't have a set date yet, but we know we want to be out of the USA by 12/25/2013. So setting the countdown ticker for then. Since that is 214 days from today, 5/5/13, thought we could blog about the 214 reasons we have for making aliyah! Enjoy.
(Okay the main reason is b/c it is our home, but thought this would be fun.)

Reason 191: Yerushalayim Shel Zahav

Went to a wedding on Sunday and under the chuppa, uncle of kallah, played a guitar and sang Yerushalayim Shel Zahav.  I can't hear that song w/o crying, so I was bawling. 
Such a beautiful song written when the Old City was occupied and Jews could not enter.  How lucky we are that we can now!
