Lipa in Disneyland

I’ve started learning Medilat Ester with my oldest daughter. There is a widely understood opinion that the decree against the Jews of Persia was not that they abandoned the Torah, but rather that they were too immersed in the non-Jewish world.

I guess that would be kinda analogous to this:

Note – I’m a big fan of Lipa, and took my kids to Disneyland a number of years ago and had a wonderful time, yet to go there for Yom Tov (even Chol Hamoed), seems somehow not right (maybe I’m just jealous that I can’t afford it)

Suggestion – if you have the budget to have a memorable Succot, why not come to Israel, we have more to offer than a talking sheretz with big ears.
