A return trip to judge a show in Israel!

My judging colleague is from Italy. My ring steward (and wonderful interpreter), Israeli.

Striking, as a “reserved” Canadian, Middle Eastern shows are more…  dramatic!  Enthusiastic applause for every class, down to the final one at 9:00 PM. 

Passionate viewpoints are expressed at the show office, over the walkie talkie and from the sidelines are colorful –amped up with volume and hand gestures.  No matter the geography –  there’s possibly more competition that goes on outside the ring than inside- what do you think?

It’s a judging survival skill to tune out distractions, drama at any show.  Not speaking Hebrew can have it’s advantages
