So sit back and relax and enjoy my pictures this year. Picture yourselves inside my succa but please do not step on my Sophie. She will be either in her tent or on the rug I put in this year. I am a little early telling you about it. Our holiday of Sukkot starts Sunday night and goes on for 7 days. We eat and for those that want to sleep in what we can a succa. It is called booths. It is a very festive holiday. So without furthur ado I will share some pictures with you here. The number 5779 is our Jewish year and we can also say 2018 which is the Gregorian year.

@Hannihar That is awesome. No, we never had one, but have been to many. We're not that religious.

@DianneN Thanks Dianne, but, is just some pictures. It is on our porch. I always wanted one and finally moved to a place where I can have one and so convenient. I open the kitchen door and go out into it. Thanks. Do you have one?

@DianneN Don't have to be religious to have a succa. Lots of people have seders for Passover and have a succa at Sukkot time. So, did the people decorate their succas and were they nice?

@just4him Thanks Valerie. I look forward to hopefully having one here next year too. I always hate to see this holiday leave and my succa going down. After Monday night it is back to normalcy and regular life again.

@just4him Thanks Valerie so much. I took the decorations out of our succa and just have the wall coverings and my chair and step stool in so it very roomy now till it goes down. It is always sad to say goodbye to Sukkot. The holiday will be over next week and then back to normalcy again. It was very nice and busy.

@Hannihar It must be uncomfortable to try to sleep in such a small place.

You are welcome. That is a pillow given to me as a gift of cats. She sniffed it before but does not really pay attention to it. I started to sleep in it Sunday night but then woke up and went to my bed. Thanks.

What exactly is a succa? Is it a booth where one can sell his products? Wow, your Sophie is so lucky to have a cozy place too in your Succa.

@SIMPLYD Here is some information about what a succa is. Succa may refer to: Sukkah, the booths erected for Sukkot, the annual Jewish commemoration of the Exodus from Egypt. When the Israelites left Egypt they were in the desert a long time so they celebrated the holiday of Sukkot by sleeping and eating in booths. We sleep in them and eat in them for 7 days here in Israel.No, is is not a booth for selling. I will send you a picture of ours outside.

@SIMPLYD My cat goes through the ends and goes on the walkway outside of it so you can feel air and also on top you can feel air too.

@Hannihar - I think the world would be a better place if more people tried to learn about each other.

@FayeHazel My Sophie is quite a character. I think because the toy balloon cat I got her scares her so she went to hide in her spot. Yes, she does bring a lot to my life.
