Elan


Elan
So far the trip has been absolutely amazing. We got to put on tefilin at the Wall and it was breath taking. I felt like is was one with G-d. We continued to tour Jerusalem and all its history. The next day we went cave diving in Israel.  We went through the tightest spaces we could possibly fit in and bonded as a group. I was struggling to crawl without a flashlight, but Alex helped lead the way with his bright LED light on his camra. As I crawled through the caves I got filthy as well as everyone else. We learned how the people used to live in the caves and killed off others who tried to intrude. We then went hiking in the South at a desert. We saw the most beautiful views as we climbed higher, and at the top were able tpo hear our echo after yelling the word of the day. We yelled Achlala as well as foooouuurrtttyyy tttwooo, immitating Shy. The day ended with us going to sleep in tents, although I slept outside, looking forward to camel back riding in the morning.
