Day 9: Thursday 20th July 2017


Happy Birthday Ella!


Today we were lucky enough to have a late wake up due to our jam-packed day yesterday. After breakfast and Tefillah, we loaded our suitcases onto the coach.

We walked down to the sea front for our first activity - snorkeling.
Following a guide, we could see hundreds of fish that were a huge range of colours and sizes.

















After this we made our way to the ICE Mall where we spent an hour and a half walking in and out of shops, arcades and Cafe Aroma.On the coach to Kibbutz Ketura we met our newest member of our tour- Peaches or Gecko (name still being discussed)- to replace Grizzlie Bizlie who we unfortunately lost (don't tell UJIA!)

We then went to the Kibbutz and enjoyed their swimming pool. After racing, performing water aerobics and playing other games we met Erez; the man with a mission to take us camping under the stars.
We climbed up and down the sand dunes of the Negev before coming to a stop. For dinner the group baked lafas and chose from a selection of toppings. We then enjoyed a sing-song, a campfire and a DMC (deep meaningful conversation) under the light of the stars before going to sleep on the sand.

And that is today's amazing experience!
