Ein Gedi

Friday February 21, 2014

Waterfall




Today we went on a beautiful hike though Ein Gedi. Ein Gedi  is a national park in Israel. I was in awe of how beautiful it is. So different for the Canadian national parks that are all trees and forest. In Ein Gedi you are walking through and on the edge of giant mountains! Our group walked though rivers and streams and finally ended up at a dead end with a waterfall! It was so funny going swimming and getting soaked by the waterfall! After the beautiful hike we headed back to the hostel to get ready for Shabbat! After services we played a get to know you game of survivor. To play we were given partners. In each round our staff would assign us a different task. For example - One partner would have to draw with their eyes closed and the other has to guess what they drew. After each round the groups would get bigger and the tasks would become harder. The lesson to be learned from this program was team work and not to be scared to ask for help when you need it.
