Day 4: July 4,2019

Fourth of July in Israel! By: Sophie Garonzik

Happy July 4th! Today we spent our morning touring the devastating yet informative Yad Vashem. There we learned about the hardships and challenges that our Jewish ancestors experienced. We then visited the YMCA, where we were able to spend quality time getting to know preschoolers of all different affiliations and origins. This Arabic- Israeli run school teaches children in both Hebrew and Arabic. Next, we returned to the hotel to engage in an Acro- balance class. During this lesson, we were taught how to use our balance and communication skills in order to create complex torsions with our bodies. Finally, we concluded with a delicious food tour around the streets of Jerusalem. The food was absolutely mouthwatering and I encourage you all to try it someday! Again happy 4th!
