Day 1: Arrival in Israel!

After joining my friends at Ben gurion airport and acquainting our tour guide Abigail, and Alfred our, security guard, we didn't waste a minute, and we were on our way to Neot Kdumim.

There we were herding sheep, which is much harder than it looks. The pleasant weather and the beautiful landscape, covered in trees of all sorts and bushes of all kinds made all the more fun.

The shooting noises of the marksmen training base nearby was only background noise... :)

After difficultly moving sheep around, we grinded our own Zaatar, a middle eastern blend of herbs.

We were then taken to a lookout, overseeing the old city of Jerusalem and all it's neighboring districts.

After finally settling down and eating at our hotel, we then took our time to sit with our group, relax, and prepare for the next three weeks of action that are about to come...
