Overnight camp to Dorm Life
We were all sad to leave the Kibbutz, with the exception of looking forward to a new menu, notwithstanding the delicious food. We had a great time, including Shabbat dinner, Havdallah service, the pub with the townies, the first mini-hike before the Golan Heights, forcing stubborn boys' to drink water and wear aloe, having bathroom time in the great outdoors, and changing clothes at least 4 times each day. Also, we have learned so much from our Israeli counterparts; their perspective and openness has been invaluable and this trip would not be the same without them. We had three birthdays in three days, including Roee (who never steers us wrong) and Stephen (aka GIT - Gentleman in Training), and Kelsey (kicking off the celebrations). Our tour guide Boaz is full of energy and very informative. The trip leaders, Cheryl and Elizabeth are always here to make sure the vegetarians have food to eat and matches to make. Now we are at the dormroom, a hotel in Jerusalem. Our first night included packing 40 participants in 1 room and lots of fun. After an emotional day at the Wall and a LONG walking tour of Old Jerusalem, we'll see what tonight has in store, and if we can keep up the pace we've been going. Peace, Love, and Cankles- Erin & Rachel (aka Partners in Crime)
