What's the deal with Sheyan these days?
Rabbi Weiner recommends it, as he personally hired the Mashgiach and is on top of him.

Oh, didn't realize you were trying to make yourself a target.
Either way, what's your budget?

I was asked by seminary girls ideas for day trips on their off days on Chanukah.. before suggesting let me tell you their restrictions.. they cannot stay in a hotel.
Eilat, Tiveria, and Tzfas is not allowed, they just went to Ein Geidi / Yam Hamelech so that is out and they don't feel horse back riding is appropriate.. any ideas?
