Day 6

We ended last night with a really fun group game.  We were all laughing and having fun together.   The kids went to sleep relatively early which was really needed after the early morning hike up Masada.

Day 6 is going great!   We left the Negev and started our journey to Tel Aviv!  We were lucky enough to go to Nacalat Binyamin, one of the first neighborhoods in Tel Aviv.  There was a craft fair there.  Then we enjoyed a delicious lunch at Dr. Shakshuka... It was really fun!  We went to the Palmach Museum afterwards.  If you are planning a trip to Israel, this museum of the story of the early days of the Israeli army is excellent for kids.  We also saw Anat, who used to teach at our school, there!  We ended our time in Tel Aviv with a visit to the place where Yitzhak Rabin was shot.    The kids got a taste for Tel Aviv.

Now we are on the bus driving to the north.  The kids are happy, having fun, and learning...oh, and a bit tired, also!

We are really getting to see so much of the country!

  1. Well it is pouring rain here at home. A little snow yesterday morning so I am quite jealous of the sunshine and warmth you guys are having. I hope the camels had earplugs...that was a lot of yelling on the way up and again on the way down. It looks like everyone is having a great time. Thanks to the chaperones for all of their hard work and to the photographers and videographers for keeping us connected. We miss you all and are so happy you are having a great time.
