Another thing I enjoy sometimes: jetlag. Actually, overall I hate it, but I do like the part about waking up in the predawn hours and getting to experience a time of day I rarely meet. While I was away Elul came in – the month before Rosh Hashana, the Day of Judgment (Yom Hadin). In preparation for that day, a shofar is blown every day at the end of morning prayers. I had forgotten about that. While sitting here surfing, I just heard my first shofar of the year. (Click on the link, and go to the bottom of the page to hear the sound of the shofar.)

Cool shofar link.
