Touring the solar system

Today HG told Abba that she had visited the sun. "What was it like?" Abba asked. "It's very hot there, it's a very hot star." HG explained. "Actually I come from Mecury, it's hot there too." She said with a grin. "And then I moved to Israel." When Abba looked a little incredulous, she smiled mishchievously and said that she was really from Earth, not Mercury.

HG was bitterly disappointed when she visited the Eretz Yisrael Museum in Tel Aviv and was denied access to their planetarium because she was too little - admission is from 5 years and up. "But why am I too little?" she asked in hurt little voice "I want to learn more about the planets and comets and stars and space too". The woman on the door was oblivious.
