On Friday, we took a family day and went to Jerusalem with five of the six boys. Yakir needed to keep his school safe from lions, elephants and butterflies – so we decided not to risk having the school unprotected.

But the other five enjoyed a day of fun and adventure at the shuk (open marketplace) downtown. We wandered around, bought fruit and vegetables and ate at everyone’s favorite fish and chips restaurant.

But the best part of the trip was my attempt to buy a few scarves. When we went into the hat store, I ignored the kids for a bit while I quickly tried to make decisions. I know that bored boys and a store are never a good mix. But little did I realize just how much fun the boys were having while I was trying on scarves and making decisions.

Amichai captured it all with the camera that he totes around everywhere these days. Yes, many of these are a bit blurry (kid needs a better camera). But you get the idea. Here is what happens when you put five boys in a hat store for more than a few seconds: Enjoy.

Yes, folks…that’s underwear on the head
