ISS: August 4 by Josh Levine

Josh Levine as Leader of the Day on Aug 4

The day started off with everyone packing up our bags to make our move to Tel Aviv. Before we left we had some places to see in Metula. We went up to a lookout that looked over the border around Metula. We were able to see the entire city from up there.



We then went to the Canada Center where we had the choice to either go skating or swimming. The majority of us went Skating first and later we went swimming.




Afterwards we ate an amazing lunch at Liat Cohen Raviv's house - the Senior Director of Diller Teen Fellows International. I have to say it was one of the best meals we ate in Israel, thanks to Liat's sister in law.



Next we all went on the bus and began our long drive from Metula to Tel Aviv. When we arrived we had shopping time in a market for an hour. We met some of the some other Diller groups while shopping which was a great surprise for us. After we all met up at the end or the shopping time we drove towards our last hotel of the trip. We ate dinner as a group and we got ready for our last program with the Israelis.



This was one of my favourite programs we did throughout the trip. We got into a big circle and candles were passed around. We were asked to go and light the candle of someone who we wanted to thank or tell them something. Although the wind kept blowing out the candles, it was still a huge success. We all said our goodbyes after the program and began to talk about the next time we will all see each other. The Israelis loaded their stuff on the bus and made their way back to Beer Sheba.
