Reflections from Shabbat

With a late start to the day, we woke our tired selves up at 9 am. We all left the kibbutz to go have breakfast in the square. Afterwards, the temple teens made their voyage back to the kibbutz where Coach Rau led a program based on biased views of the Middle East portrayed by the media. Then, it was lunch time. At last, we boarded the bus, and headed towards Eilat. Seeing a glimpse of the city, we were all stoked. We got our gear for snorkeling, and headed on down to the sea. We snorkeled for hours over the coral reef, admiring the views it had to offer. Eventually, we all had too much of the salt water and headed on back to the bus. We made our way to the heart of the city and spent the rest of the day at the promenade.Everyone walked around, shopped, and had dinner. At 8:30, we all went back to the kibbutz and gathered around the courtyard to have Havdallah. Lastly, we finished our fantastic day with a great evening program that no one will forget.
