FAREWELL To SHABBAT

continuous access to hundreds of
rituals, life-cycle events and holi-
days, with a site discussing Havdala
(www. j a yellowp ages . co m) .
And far from American soil, an
annual summer wildlife safari was
highlighted by a Havdala ceremony
after the group saw the third star rise
over the Serengeti.
The Havdala in the Mara Safari is
for those wanting to "learn-about the
relationship between Jews and wildlife
and the environment," says program
director Larry Broder, executive director
of Temple De Hirsch Sinai in Seattle.
Broder, a former wildlife science
instructor and wildlife biologist, and
his wife, Sue, an educator, already had
led seven trips to Kenya before coordi-
nating their first Havdala trip last July.
Describing it as a "safari with a Jewish
bent," they merged the two things
they love most: Kenya's exceptional
wildlife viewing and Judaism.

No matter where you are, it's pos-
sible to celebrate Havdala with a
miniature travel set offered by
Shabbat-To-Go. Catherine Magid,
owner of the North Carolina compa-
ny, says the increase in requests for
Havdala items has warranted her
adding them to her line of "obser-
vances in a bag." She says at a recent
New York gift show, she "sold 70 of
the bar and bat mitzvah bags and a
huge amount of wedding bags."
She finds her shoppers "are on a
quest for moving up the rungs of the
ladder." (To reach Shabbat-To-Go,
call 336-288-9293.)
Ruth Marcus of Beth Shalom
observes Havdala during family
travels — no matter where. "Even
on vacations, I always carry with me
Shabbat candles and a miniature
Havdala candle and spices," she
says. "Havdala brackets Shabbat,
completing it for us, as an oasis in
time."❑
