The apartment is naturally hot and stuffy because Israel is hot. There are two air conditioning units, one in our room and one in the main room. Gabi and Alice are making do with a fan, and Helen's cubicle is right off of the kitchen, so she should get the air from the main room. We didn't get that quite right last night because we turned that unit off, but we'll try something different tonight. Maybe if it gets cool enough (the night-time lows are in the mid 70s right now), she can open her window.
Josh thought that we would watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off last night to help us stay awake until 8pm. (The time difference from Oberlin is 7 hours later.) Turns out the movie, like all movies from our childhood, had more language than remembered, but Alice slept through it and it was pretty much above Gabi's head, innocent smart child that she is. Helen loved it, as expected.
We all took a little melatonin in hopes that it would help us stay asleep and have almost reconvened this morning. Helen made it to about 6:45am, Gabi is still asleep at almost 11am, and the rest of us are spaced out in the middle there.

Gabi & Alice's room. Why the child wears socks to bed is beyond me.
Do you remember the days when she wore the crocheted hat all the time? No one could figure that one out either!
