Before arriving in Italy from Israel, I made a stop in Texas.
Well, close enough. Elise's aunt lives on the U.S. Airforce base near Venice. I don't think I have ever missed my country soo much when we went to the commisary and bought marshmellows, ranch dressing, and egg beaters, all in US dollars.
That night, we saw the movie 21. Before the previews were about to start, everyone rises. At that moment, I realize what is going on, and say, oh too loudly, "Are You Kidding Me?!?!". Every soldier, high school kid that lives on the base because their parents dragged them there, and blond haired wife, stood up, put their hand over their heart, and sang God Bless America. Hands down, most interesting thing I have seen so far.
