Ciao (Hello)
Today was a day indeed. It started out with all of us waking up at 6:15 in order to be ready for our tiyul. Our tiyul was in two separate areas. The first area was two hours away up north in a place where labor zionists began their movement and tried to rebuild the land. We had a lecture on top of the mountain, and that was around the time when I started to feel pretty sick. All of a sudden a rush sickness fell over my body while Mordechai was talking; the symptoms were runny nose, coughing, and my whole body felt like it was going to explode. I could barely walk, yet persevered through lecture. After the lecture we went towards the Lebanon border and took a nice hike through the valley bordering the two countries. It was nice but had lots of stairs, which weren't so great, since I could barely walk yet alone lift my legs up in the air. During the hike there were a lot of pretty vegetation growing everywhere and many waterfalls streaming down the cliff of the Lebanon border. After the hike we went to a graveyard that meant a lot for the zionist movements. It was a place where Rachel, a key leader of Zionism values and helped teach a lot of the foreign immigrants( from Russia mostly) how to speak hebrew. It was very interesting to see her burial and her about her inspiring story. Then we went to a city for DOTS, Dinner on the streets, and me and mosey both shared a nice big pizza. Now we are back at the campus and have to get ready for bed pretty soon, because we have another tiyul tomorrow, and I am still kind of sick and hoping to get better before tomorrow. SO good night everyone and love your family.
