Shabbat!
Along with a handful of people we walked to synagogue for Shabbat services.
We came back to the hotel and had lunch. Participates from our trip were Bar/Bat Mitzvahed (mostly those who have not been Bnai Mitzvahed before).
Then we took a Shabbat walk to a local park, where we discussed Jewish mitzvot; we had to sort the mitzvot into our top 10, top 5, top 1 mitzvot.
It was really interesting to hear the different view points from each person of our group. The opinions between us Anericans and the Israelis were different. When it came to the mitzvot of Tikkun Olam, the Israelis didn't find it as important - Israelis don't take part in Tikkun Olam as we do.
Rest time / nap time!
Dinner at the hotel. The snitzle was so yummy! (It's basically a chicken nuget).
Havdallah on top of the roof of the hotel was so peaceful and wonderful! What a great week to start the week!
We went to Ben-Yehuda street for evening free time. It wasn't what I expected it to be, but there was a lot of excitement with lots of people!
