YBY2: August 6: Kotel, Ben Yehuda & Banquet!
YBY2: August 6: Kotel, Ben Yehuda & Banquet!

Our last day of Yad B’Yad is unfortunately here, Thinking about leaving everyone makes me shed a tear.

After davening and breakfast we began the day, We went to the Kotel and started it in the right way.

We davened and thanked Hashem for an amazing summer, Then we sang “leshana haba”, it could not have been funner (more fun).

We then ventured on to Ben Yehuda to shop, But I’ve stayed up all night and feel like I’m about to drop.

We then returned to the hotel for lunch and to get ready for our banquet meal, To prepare for our group presentations and tell everyone how the summer made us feel.

Each group had something to share,

Some sang, some danced, and group seven spit everywhere.

We broke to have our last Ramat Rachel meal, The friendships we made this summer are for real.

We then gathered to watch a montage of our summer, Leaving Israel and each other is a real bummer.

We got sweatshirts, sweatpants and group swag, I hope it will all fit in my bag!

Then the last bus ride to Tel Aviv,

Running through the airport to catch the plane before it would leave.

A fun flight where we slept and hung out with our friends, Sadly this is where the journal ends.

Your very proud staff!
