TribeL2LJeru Day 1:


Day 1 of our experience! Written by Rebecca Ebner-Landy and Joe Joseph 

On day 1 we arrived from Tel Aviv, tired from the long flight we just had. Although we thought we wouldn't have a good day, seeing as we were exhausted, we were soon proved wrong. After a short while, we started to meet new people and make new friends. Some people chose to daven shacharit in the morning, and enjoyed relating to the spiritual side of Israel.

We then went to the Ben Shemen forest for some team building activities, which made it easier to get to know new people. 


From there we travelled to the Tayelet and saw a beautiful view of Jerusalem. We were blindfolded before seeing the view to enhance the experience. 


We ate lunch at Ben Yehuda street and had some authentic falafel and shawarma. 



Ultimately the day was tiring but extremely enjoyable. We met lots of new, exciting and interesting people and enjoyed embarking on our adventure in Jerusalem. Also it was interesting to see some other people from the group who were seeing Israel/Jerusalem for the first time! It was cool to share that amazing experience with them.
