J-town!

Last week we had a free day so me and my two friends Lindsey and Eliza decided that we wanted to just go out to west jerusalem and go to a few of the many sites that are on our long list on things that we should do while we are here. We went to a windmill, the YMCA tower (which you climb a ton of stairs and then you can overlook the whole city), the king david hotel, a cool park, and a few other cool places. We had so much fun being in a small group and being able to do what we wanted and just roaming the city.

We had fun taking random pictures everywhere and not having to worry about other people waiting around for us (this is the great thing about be able to go out in small groups) Self timer is a great thing!

Last week we also went on a fun field trip to some places and the two that I really loved was going to the site where David slew Goliath. While we were there we read about the story and a few people ahead of time had created a Goliath with several boxes stacked on top of each other and so we all got slings and we got to try and hit rocks at Goliath and bring him down.

I dont know if you can see it but in front of all these people is the Goliath and they are all slinging at him.

Me attempting to do it. I wasnt very successful though. Ha
After that we went to some random caves that I dont really think had any significance but we went spelunking through the caves and got pretty dirty but had tons of fun!

This was the view from the center the other night as we were getting back from the center. BEAUTIFUL!
