Yes, Simcha
Where?
In Shamayim
and
In HaAretz
But where is there to go to let out your simcha 😉
Anywhere that HaKodeshBarchu is.
Aha. Ok. BUt is there any fun place to go we haven’t mentioned yet
MBC.
Hey, did I say that already?
I don’t live in the NY area, but any Sukkah+Ahavas Hashem combination should do the trick just fine
I dont know if mepal said it but yeah we had MBC already. I think that’s where I’ll go. Where is everybody else limaskonoh going
PY 613, I must’ve said it three times 😉
But honestly, its up to you if you like their kind of singing etc.
How expensive are the tickets
Well you can get cheap ones for $18 or better ones for $100.
Don’t you have something better to do with your life other than a concert?
areivim, what elseis there to do 😉
yeah, like sit and learn with your sons all day. Or go to some amusement park and come home sicker than when you left.
I don’t have sons to learn with, but anyways, I think I’d rather go to MBC. Areivim what’s your suggestion?
There’s plenty to do- what’s wrong with some quality family time?
Play sports in a park, weather permitting
Go to Bear Mountain
Mohawk Mountain
Play Taboo with your fam!
Open any AAA book…
Science & History Museums
Mansions, gardents etc… (yik)
Enjoy
THose are some good suggestions, i’ll have to think it over.
areivim, gardens…yik?
lol, the gun factory sure sounds interesting.
PY 613, my error. The most expensive tickets are $50, not $100. You can check it out online.
Delawer River has some great activities- hiking, canoeing, camping, boating, bird watching…
Just curious. I imagine many people work right? How do people do it on chol hamoed with their jobs or businesses? I’m just wondering because for my husband its hard for him to get away from his office for so many days especially with all the yom Tovs.
Depending on when Chol HaMoed falls out (over a weekend or, like Sukkos, over the whole week) determines whether or not my father has enough vacation days to take off. This Sukkos, he is planning to go in for 2 days because he otherwise does not have enough.
And the good thing is that yom tov falls on weekends!
any ideas for someone whose in monsey?? i’m staying there for some of yom tov and need some ideas for family thats not too far??
Yoyo, try Alstede Farms. Its about an hour a way. Look at their website for a full list of what they offer.
the lipa and avremel concert wil probably be amazing. 2 of the best jewish perfomers on one stage,sounds gr8!
how about apple picking, new rock city, madd funn, boardwalk, uncle moishy 4 kids,slideshows, israel, florids, south carolina tickets were for 39 cents, and much more!
thanks SJSinNYC but lee turkey farm is much better in picking- thers more of a variety and we usually go there. thanks anyways!!!
any more ideas??? i want somewhere close to monsey but doesn’t necessarily need to be in there!
Yerushalayim, Chevron, Tiveria, tiyul of the Shomron . . . that pretty much takes care of the week.
Okay Mamashtakah, now I’m jealous.
my friend wants to know if the trenk sukkah in flatbush is the type that u could just go see whenever you want…and wants to know what makes it so cool?
Wow CNP. You’re a nice friend.
coke not pepsi:
the ‘Trenk’ part
So…. Did everyone have fun on chol hamoed today??
i just arrived in bushkill falls. anyone know what we can do besides seeing the falls & hiking?
The Trenk’s sukkah is the most fantastic private sukkah you have ever seen! You can go any time to look around and be amazed! They have literally hundreds of gedolim pictures of rabbonim from all branches of Torah Judaism, detailed dioramas, and a huge fish tank. And they add something new every year. Can’t describe it adequately – it’s a must see!

Did anyone go see the ‘Yankel-Am Ha’aretz’ show? Just the poster alone looks hilarious.
I guess I’m missing out of all the NY area chol hamoed fun!
🙁
You can always come by. No ones stopping you.
im going to bed
Mepal to tell you the truth, when I go to the states NY isn’t always my first option.
Why not? NY? Its the greatest place on planet earth!
The hotels are expensive, there’s no parking, people are ahem…. Rude, don’t get me wrong I do like NY but if I have to buy an airplane ticket, rent a car, pay for hotel, etc I can really go anywhere. LA, Miami, etc.
You can always stay by us 😉
We wont charge and I’ll let you use my spare car for the week. Oh, and we’ll be sure to be SUPER nice to the oot’ers!
wow! Thanx mepal!!! That’s so nice! Now …. Ill just get to NY and ask around if anyone knows a mepal!;)
Best Chol HaMoed Trips: (1) local hospital, with your age-appropriate children, a lulav/esrog, and a plate of cake. (2) local nursing home, with your age-appropriate children, and a plate of cake. (Check patients’ dietary restrictions before offering food). Maybe an hour during an afternoon of a couple of days of chol ha’moed.
Nothing makes a bigger or better impact on children than teaching by example that while we have time off from work and school we SHARE that time with others who not be able to go on trips or be with family. The opportunity to teach selflessness should be embraced.
Please do, mybat 😉
Whenever you want you can come to Mexico and ask around for mybat. Come to think of it it’ll probably be easier for you to find me! (less people than in NY!!)
