Galilee If I Forget You! (second week)

Day 7 (Sunday)
Chilled again!! Not doing much! Just swimming and eating and sleeping and hanging out with the students!

Day 8 (Monday)
I went on a fieldtrip! We went to Mt. Tabor, Nain, Megiddo and Gan Ha-Shelosha. Mt. Tabor is one of the traditional sites of the Transfiguration. Megiddo is where some people believe armeggedon is going to take place, the end of the world battle! Then Gan Ha- Shelosha is a spring that we got to swim in, so much fun!!
I love my parents!

My Parents did an FHE lesson for the students


Chilling with the students <3


Day 9 (Tuesday)
Went on another fieldtrip with the students. We first went to Hazor, the biggest tel in Israel. Then we went to Dan a very large Old Testament city, very fun and cool. Then we went to Ceaserea Phillipi, very cool. Then we went to Nimrod's Castle, one of my favorite places, it is complete castle that you can run around in! :) Then we went to Har Bental, which is an army outpost that outlooks Syria, very cool. Super duper fun day! With a bonfire and fun at night!

Day 10 (Wednesday)
Went to Chorazin, Sepphoris and Akko. It was a really great day, Akko is one of my favorite places, it is a crusader city, that is pretty much all still there! It was the center of the crusaders after Jerusalem. Then after the fieldtrip went to the fireside by Brother Harper and it was really great! Then I hung out with the students.

Day 11 (Thursday, the last day)
So for our last day in Galilee, We had to say goodbye, I had to say goodbye for a little while, I have had so many amazing memories in Galilee, I have had lots of cool spiritual, maturing experinces in this beautiful place and I will miss my beautiful sea and view! :( Well we first went to  then we wnet to Haifa the cemetery there where some LDS missionaries were buried after serving in Haifa. Then we saw the view of the Bahai' gardens. Then we went to Ceaserea Maritma, which is such a cool place!
