Truly my happy place. Here with the boys for the bar mitzvah of the son of one of my dearest pals.
The event was this morning. Forgot to pack deodorant. Had to use Bennett’s.
They served fish balls in synagogue which I ate with reckless abandon.
So I spent much of the day reeking of Axe deodorant and chopped and fried fish.

Despite all that, the trip is a big success so far. Traveling with the boys is almost luxurious. True, they spend the entire time worrying that their “devices” will run out of battery (chill kids, it isn’t a pacemaker); but they also carry my luggage.
Tradeoffs…
