On July 22nd, the Montreal and Bash Banash Diller Teen Fellows departed from Congress and went on a long drive to the
beautiful Tzvat. We walked through the city (which was crowded with groups) and visited a synagogue. Our tour guide, Samuel - who we were reunited with - taught us about the history of Tzvat and its growth into the spiritual, mystical city that it is today.
We had
some free time to get souvenirs at some of the stores there, after which we went to speak to Avraham, a
Kabbalah artist, who talked about the deep meaning behind his artwork. I have already
been there but it was exciting to be there again.
We left the beautiful
city to go white water rafting on the Jordan river. First we made a pit stop to
eat delicious pizzas and then we were on our way to the start. Everyone had so
much fun, we splashed and raced to the end. We even allied with new friends.
Finally, we travelled to the
kibbutz we are staying at and we got ready for Shabbat. Our last Shabbat
together with the Israelis was so meaningful and fun. It's sad that it was our
last Shabbat together but it was the best one yet.
