well folks, i have gotten myself into a squeeze with time and getting ready for shabbas, so I will have to post early next week cause i have a lot to catch up on. In the mean time here are some pics from a tiyul (hike, trip) that I took this week with my ulpan. I went to David's City and Hezekiah's Tunnel. We learned about the siege that David laid on the city, which was then Jebus, and we took a walk through an archeological site called Hezekiah's Tunnel which is several hundred meters long and has a foot or so of water running through it. Check out the link. It was a very enjoyable day and evening but very very exhausting. I was glad I did it, even though I didn't get my Hebrew homework done:) Oops. Shabbat shalom. There are many of you that I haven't been in touch with and I am sorry, I will do better now that I am in a more stable living arrangement. Much love.
Photos: the village of silwan, an arab village in East Jerusalem; our cute (but TOTALLY Israeli smart-ass) tour guide; my friend Jeremy and I; the group making its way through the tunnel (the water was so nice!); graffiti outside the end of the tunnel; a man named Yitzchak who was sitting smoking his cig and takin it easy near the exit of the tunnel...cute old man, no?
By the way, I live in Jerusalem...WTF. How did I get this lucky.
That is a little explanation, hope I am improving my blogging etiquette.
