Sheket. Sheket.

Am writing this from my phone in our room since the Internet is fickle. If I move just two centimeters in any direction I might lose service do work with me.

Sheket.

Yesterday (Friday) we hit Yad Vashem. The Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem. Absolutely amazing. Will write an entire post on that experience. Then in what seems to be the standard during this trip we ate 26 meals in 12 hours and visited a market. Amazing. Overwhelming number of people and shops. Will post pictures soon. I promise.

After that we had Shabbat dinner as a group at the hotel and took over the lobby area of the seventh floor for oneg.

Oneg literally translates to enjoyment (if memory serves correct).

We hung out, talked about random things, made fun of Alissa, ate more food, and laughed a lot. Overall an amazing evening.

Today with the weather still not cooperating, we visited the Bible Lands Museum and then went to the Islamic Art Museum.

Since its still the sabbath everything is closed. The streets are completely empty.

At 615 today te sabbath breaks and we'll be heading to Ben yehuda street for dinner on our own. Should be interesting!

More to come soon.

Until then.
