[quote=Anonymous]I had a bat mitzvah in Israel and one here. I did not have the big Sat. night party, but a luncheon in a restaurant (here). There was a regular bat mitzvah service at the synagogue, however. My Israeli bat mitzvah was on Masada (realize I have no idea if I've spelled that correctly!). We did a family tour and I do not recall if every family had a child becoming bar or bat mitzvah. It was the first major trip my family had taken, and I think we all found it meaningful. My recollection is that I wasn't having a big party like my brother...and that the trip was in lieu of that. I don't recall whose decision that was! I chanted a torah portion and I'm sure did other parts of the service. I remember studying for both.[/quote]
