Sfat is so holy! I remember the time that Rachel and I could afford a one day vacation soon after we were married and living in Jerusalem. Where should we go on this one day? There was never a question: we both knew that we wanted to be in Tzfat. I have pages and pages of memories from there - some very painful - some transcendent. My father was in the hospital there during our only trip to Israel as a child. He was very ill. I also spent countless hours dancing there during the klezmer festival, year's later, when I took high-school tour groups through there. Yes, Brian, it is such a special place in the universe that could only be in Israel. Gevalt! Sfat is so holy!
