On Thursday July 7 we toured Tel Aviv and experienced a few things that were fun and others that were more serious subjects. In the morning we went to Rabin Square where Yitzhak Rabin, an Israeli politician, was assassinated in 1995. While we were there we had a mission to go around the area of the square and ask strangers their thoughts on the assassination and how it shaped Israel today.
After an educational experience at the Rabin museum, where we learned about Yitzhak Rabin's life, as well as Operation Entebbe, we went on to the Mediterranean Sea for a couple hours. Even though I've been to many beaches, being in Israel and having so much fun outside was amazing. We really had a good time in the water and after that we returned to the hotel to get ready for our night outing. When we arrived at the Azrieli mall, I was mesmerized to see the number of similar store names. Many fellows met up with family and had a nice dinner while others hung out with their friends and shopped a bit.
Overall, it was a successful day and one that I will always remember
