August 4, 2015: Talent Shows, the Biblical Zoo, and Jerusalem

(This was written in acrostic formation!)

We had an exciting long trek back to the holy city of Jerusalem!

Everyone was pumped when we broke up into Shira’s and Lani’s learning group right before we sojourned through the zoo.

Dinner in our new hotel in bait vegan was fancy shmancy

New and old talents were discovered in Judah’s pumping talent show

Everybody had an incredible time showing off their unique talents

Sadly the night came to an end but we are excited for tomorrow

Dance of the flash mob nature was taught by our awesome counselor Leora for Yom Yachad

And we are excited for Yom Yachad tomorrow night

Yours truly by Yakov and Tzvi

 


 

The day began, with tremendous heat
We packed up the Bedouin tents and went to breakfast to eat

We loaded the buses with strength and ease
Despite it being 115 degrees!

Our group split into two and went our separate ways
But we reunited at the end of the day

One group went to Kibbutz Lotan
We learned a lot and had a lot of fun

The place is Eco friendly, and what we loved the most
Were the bathrooms where we had to use compost

Randall Ranch was our next stop
The place was pretty and also VERY hot

The place was founded by a guy who runs it really well
Now the ranch is going to become a hotel!

Schnitzel sandwiches we ate and water we bought
We drove a long way and finally made it to Eilat!

After dinner we got dressed in our favorite Yachad gear
In blue and orange we sang lots of cheers

We learned a flashmob to the song “shut up and dance”
To perform it on Yom Yachad is our big chance!

Banquet and sweatshirt planning meeting are almost done
We’re enjoying our last few days on Yad B’Yad trip 1!
