Well, i hitchhiked for the first time in Israel. Glad i crossed that one off the list.
I spent the weekend at my cousins in the West Bank. Lots of food, lots of babies.
Here are some observations about life in Israel:
*All birthright kids get glassy eyed and have definite sensory overload.
*Girls like it when you listen to them; babies like it when you make funny noises.
I have two flashbacks this past week:
*Waiting for Busi to open on a saturday night after shabbat, sitting on the giant bomb shelter in front of it.
*Ein Gev, the last weekend of Machon in Israel. It was so glorious. One of the best weekends of my life, hands down. So much happened. Everyone there has a great memory from there. Oddly enough, when i biked the Sea of Galilea which you're not supposed to do in the summer time and almost died (more on this tomorrow) i was fading when we past Ein Gev, and the flashbacks and memories saved me...either that or distracted me for 10 km or so.
Probably a couple more blogs. Operation get my shit home is ongoing, and going smoothly. Thanks to all the loyal colleagues who have supported me in this. (more on this...in my last blog)
Human Rights, Human Wrongs, and all of life's glorious rights of passage as seen through the eyes of a stranger in a strange land.

Pretty sure those are just observations and not israel specific. Furthermore, water is wet, rocks are hard... don't throw them at people.
