On Shabbas Parshat HaChodesh,
Derech Etz Chaim took their yearly pilgramage to Tzfat; our last yeshiva Shabbaton on the road. After many consecutive years at the Hadar Hotel, we spent this year at the Carmel Hotel around the corner. As usual we took over the entire Hotel. Here we have Uri Henig showing us the main lobby area.
Most of the shana bet and gimmel students remarked on how the rooms, the views and the general atmosphere of the Carmel was much more comfortable and heimish.
R' Sheftel Weinberg remarked on the complete haphazard decor of the hotel and how not one thing on the wall remotely matched the other. Below is Ian King who we caught helping set the dining room late Friday afternoon
The yeshiva davened Kabbalat Shabbat at the lively Breslov minyan. However, one of the highlights of the Shabbos was the Shalom Zachor of the Gersten Family after dinner.
R' Betzalel, with his children Elisheva and Ezra, came to Tzfat for the shabbaton with the yeshiva while his wife and newborn son rested comfortably over Shabbos in Sharei Tzedek hospital back in Yerushalayim.
Rebbanim who spoke at the meals were
R' Binyamin Wolff,
R' Moshe Eliyahu Rosenbaum and the
Rosh Yeshiva spoke to us at Seudah Shlishit -- his final address to the yeshiva at the end of a successful zman and to prepare them for the challenges of bein hazmanim. Our alumni Danny Sobel, who joined us for Shabbos gave a beautiful walking tour of Tzfat on Shabbos afternoon. After a lovely Shabbos in beautiful Tzfat we headed back to yeshiva
