Taglit Birthright Summer 2014 - Day 2
Posted on 06/14/2014 @ 11:00 AM
Out first full day was such a wonderful tease. 'Twas shabbos, and thankfully after a long flight from Jersey, we were allowed to sleep in! Zzzzzzz...
10 a.m. was the wake-up plus breakfast. Little did we know we would be having the exact same breakfast EVERYDAY: Eggs, Israel salad and hummus :)
At 11 a.m. we began what seemed to have been the shortest walk on this trip. A five minute journey to the hot springs and pool next to the Kineret. Pool, sun, dance, music, handstands, Frisbee, football, and splashing made our afternoon so amazing.
It was an amazing bonding experience where 40 young Jews from Miami arrived in Israel, exhausted from travel and hardly knowing each other. We left the hot springs as a family.
It was thrilling, fun, relaxing and enjoyable, but most of all it was meaningful.
We have really become an amazing group of close friends.
