Big wheels keep on rollin' ... The Arava Institute for Environmental Studies, whose bike rides throughout Israel have pedaled the importance of mutual understanding between peoples, had an international reception at the home of Jack and Andrea Platt, spokes-biggies for the group. Jon Leo (above, right), on the exec committee from Orange County, Calif., gets a hug and a greeting from David Lehrer, exec director in Israel.

The Platts chat up Eric Berzon, chairman, Friends of Arava Institute.

There was much to feast on with the Mideast catering of Suzanne Monsalud's Plan It Elegant.
