Life in the Challenge

I don't think you know just how good it feels to be sitting on this bus right now. We're all hot, sweaty and hungry... and we love it. Here on the Israel Challenge, we the living just took part in an epic battle of team versus team versus Tel Aviv. After learning the tragic history of the naming of Rabin square (if you don't know it, Google it and have your tissues at the ready) the group was a little down, so what we got next was truly what we needed; a sealed mysterious envelope and a walkie talkie... followed by a few hours of running around a beautiful city. But where's the challenge in that? To gain points (so we could respectfully beat the other teams) we were equipped with cameras. IDF soldiers, the Orthodox, buildings and even the innocent pizza delivery guys were our targets. As you could imagine chaos and fun engulfed our stressful yet rewarding challenge. Now the real question is "how much did my team win by?" :D Our bus has pulled up in front of the hotel and we've sure worked up an appetite. Til' next time! Daniel
