...the last post has long since gotten boring. So, here is another one that will hopefully keep you at least still checking my blog every once in a while. Who knows what will happen when I get back to the States...I'm sure that the posts probably won't be as interesting as they are now...hopefully they will be more frequent...it is so busy right now here.
We just got back from a week in the Galilee. Our little cabins were right on the shore of the Sea of Galilee (which is really more like a lake). It was a fun, exhausting trip. We learned a lot and all got nice tans/sunburns. We had two days off school while we were there...one of which most of us spent hiking through a wadi and watching live war exercises...(don't worry, they were just shooting off shells on the other side of the wadi). The noise from the shelling was tremendous...especially as it echoed through the wadi. I wish my brothers could have been there. If you watched on the other side you could see a cloud of smoke before you heard any noise at all. After the cloud of smoke the noise was that of a plane flying really low right over your head. I don't have any pictures of that because the hike we were on was one where you had to swim part of it, so we did not take our cameras with us lest we ruin them completely.
Now we are back on the moshav for another two weeks of classes before spring break. I will be heading to Egypt and Jordan with some friends. After that its back to classes for another week or so and we are done. It is really hard to believe my college education will be over in just a few weeks. Time really does fly. I think I have learned a lot...mostly how much I don't know and how much I have to learn. I have made some great friends and been blessed with amazing experiences. I am thankful to have a full-time job waiting for me at the other end of the stage, it helps to know at least a little of what is next in life.
