Yes, we got our first ever gold medal! It was in windsurfing, and the name of the winner is Gal Friedman. There were lots of big celebrations and such, and everyone here is very happy here!

This has been a good week. Another silver added to our total! Though its nothing compared to Americas medal hoarding, every one we had one has gotten its on front page story.

It was expected, though (the 100 medals thing). Seems to happen each time.

I was pretty surprised when it heard it was Israels first gold.......
But then again, we didn't have as many competitors as the US or China did...
