Update (Part 2)--Tel Aviv

Sunset over the Mediterranean

October 12

After classes Friday, a group of us decided to take a trip to Tel Aviv and go to the beach. Our group included Spencer, Tim, Annalisa, Tasha, Risa, Lynn, Holly, Erin, Nichelle, and I. It was really nice having a small, intimate group. It allowed us to really get to know each other better.

We went first to a restaurant that served American food! It was absolutely amazing! I got Chicken Parmesan on a huge bed of pasta--it was wonderful! Afterwards we went to the beach. We spent the rest of the day swimming in the Mediterranean and playing in the sand. A group of us built a sand castle and I actually got buried in the sand. There were a couple of Israeli guys who came up and started flirting with us. They were actually kind of creepy, but luckily we had people there to protect us. After watching the sunset over the Mediterranean, we went and got gelato. I had coconut and oreo in a waffle cone--it was wonderful and tasted divine! We drove back soon after the gelato and were able to get back for dinner. It really was a fun day and I got to know the people in our group a lot better.
