Dear Friends of Torah Flora,
I have recently begun planning with Kosherica Kosher Cruises for a Torah Flora
cruise during the summer of 2010. The trip would include all of the usual
luxurious amenities and family-friendly ambience of a Kosherica cruise with the
bonus of a series of Torah Flora programs. We are planning an entertaining,
informative, and exciting combination of vividly illustrated presentations
dramatized with samplings of fragrant components of the Temple incense and other
Biblical spices, tastings of Biblical and Talmudic foods such as assorted
varieties of olives, grapes, and dates, and live flowering plants. Torah Flora
programs are appropriate for both adults and families that are traveling with
children or grandchildren.
Kosherica is offering several cruise itineraries next summer, including some
that will tour Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Alaskan waters. Several other
itineraries will be added over the next few months. Their current offerings are
listed on their Web site:

If you think that you might be interested in joining us, please e-mail me at
jon from torahflora.org
and tell me which dates or destinations interest you. If there is sufficient
interest in a Torah Flora program for one or more cruises, Kosherica will
schedule us in, and I will see you on board!
I hope to hear from many of you soon, and hope that you will be able to join our
group next summer.
Best wishes and Happy Chanukah,
