Danny Raskin's LISTENING ADAM'S RIB POST By SAMMY WOOLF Guest Columnist Things I'll never forget- l'ke my first trip to Israel, companied by my wife Ann and friends Elli and Iry Silk. We departed from New York about midnight, and as the dawn broke, about three hours' air time from Israel, we had just fallen asleep, when suddenly we found our- selves in the plane that had SMORGASBORD EVERY WEDNESDAY NITE AT i&iltthr inn 41661 Plymouth Rood Plymouth, Michigan 453-4300 544-1240 been converted into a syna- gogue, as close to Heaven as Iry Silk will ever get. Men, young and old, gath- ered around our seats which were in the front of the ship, to hold morning prayer serv- ices, and we were part of the minyan. It made me feel proud, here 30,000 feet above earth to see and hear, and be part of, this service. We spent 16 beautiful days sightseeing — things I had only read and heard about. Our first night in Tel Aviv, walking on Dizengoff St., the Broadway of Israel, with its sidewalk cafes, filled with people, singing, laughing with such gaiety, reminded me of New York, in the good old days. We almost forgot about our early start for the tour. Our tour guide was an ex- paratrooper who helped make our Hadassah-sponsor- ed trip very interesting.
