Hi there, to all family and friends!!
As you may know, the communication committee (and other teens in the group) will be writing a blog on a daily basis to keep you all informed about the great things we’re up to.
After a long and tiring trip, including lots of Swiss chocolate and heavy luggage, the group was greeted at the airport by Diller teens and staff who had arrived early. After many hugs and a quick bite to eat, we were off to our first excursion to Jaffa. Ice breakers and a few opening activities gave us the chance to get to know our wonderful tour guide, Nanak, and boost our energy. Nanak then told us the story of the first aliah to Israel from Russia at the port of Jaffa. After walking around a little and taking pictures in front of gorgeous views, we headed to Kfar Hayarok, a youth village where we are spending the night. The group concluded the day with a ma’agal laila, going over the high and low points of the day.
It is only our first day in Israel, but the excitement has really sunk in and we can’t wait to see what’s in store for tomorrow!!
Goodnight for now (we need to catch up on sleep)
