SCOTLAND SPRING 2022
As we were finalizing our plans for the spring trip to Italy the Queen was called and told that she had won the Dr. Gertrude Herzfeld Award for 2022 International Jewish Woman of the Year for Health awarded by the Edinburgh Jewish Cultural Center and the Royal College of Surgeons of Scotland. The award was going to be presented on International Women's Day on March 6 and they wanted the Queen to attend. Since we had never been to Scotland and this could be done on our way to Barcelona the Queen accepted. She was the unanimous selection from a pool of 21 incredible women. If you want to watch the ceremony here is the link (you can skip to Hynda's speech by going to the 29 minute mark). The beginning talks about the woman who the award is named after and is interesting.
