It turns out that I am a horrible blogger. I have been too busy being in Israel and socializing in the kfar to blog. So, now i shall attempt to recount the last three weeks (and more importantly weekends).
My second weekend in Israel I went on an organized trip to the Golan. We left the Kfar very early friday morning and did a long hike in the Golan during the day. We learned about the destruction of the city of Gamla (unfortunately our tour guide did not speak the best English so I can't exactly retell the story of Gamla but essentially the city was built on this crazy hill and it was destroyed)
During my third weekend in Israel I finally made it to my favorite place, the beach! I went to Tel-Aviv with a bunch of people. As soon as i arrived in Tel Aviv I headed for the beach. The Mediterranean ocean is really great. I spent the better part of the weekend at the beach.
I spent this weekend, my fourth in Israel, in Jerusalem. On Thursday I moved into a new apartment with three great girls. My old apartment was both dirty and lonely so the move was a VERY good idea. On Friday I cooked for the first time since I have been here and went to a pot luck dinner it was amazing! We lit candles and did kiddush. It made me miss Berkeley but it was also a nice reminder of why I love Shabbat. Saturday I slept in and hung out around the Kfar doing homework and playing Frisbee. Basically, Shabbat with amazing!
And then, Saturday night i got a call on Skye and it was RACH! I was so freaking happy! We talked and chatted for over an hour! I can't wait to see her!
(Also, I have basically talked to aba at least two times a day, and sometimes more except for two days last week when he didn't call me. I think he was mad at me because I hadn't called Rifka. He said he wasn't angry but i think he was. I called her on Friday and we talked only in Hebrew. Now aba is back to calling me twice a day....love you aba!)
