Haifantastic

The morning after we broke the fast, I woke up late and hopped on a train with 2 friends to Haifa, a city in the north of Israel. We walked the streets of this beautiful place and saw the amazing Bahai Gardens at night. Later I enjoyed a home-cooked Shabbat dinner with about 15 people who I rarely get to see on Year Course. The next morning we woke up and walked to the beach where we ate lunch and spent some time enjoying the Mediterranean Sea. I was back in Jerusalem with just enough time to pick up the last tickets to Hadah Nachash a very popular Israeli band. The concert was very fun, and a wonderful cap to a perfect weekend. 

Classes today were interesting, and I now have another 2 days off for the holiday of Sukkot. I am not entirely sure of my plans, but I will keep you posted once they are determined. 

Tonight we are going to a very religious area of Jerusalem for a special program. I will let you know how that goes as well.

Chag Sameach!
