My family doesn't eat 'gebrokts' (matzoh that gets wet) either, not until 
the 8th day. If I hadn't been used to this my entire life I'd probably
feel 
even more deprived with the food choices we are restricted to.

We're enjoying mid-to-upper 50º temperatures here in NYC, and they're 
promising us high 60ºs by Thursday, hope it stays that way for your visit.
