We went on a hike today in Nahal Arugot, a wadi nearby, but we still had to take this dilapidated bus to get there. We had some great group pics on the bus though! When we got there, Sergio was sent back because he didn't have the proper shoes. We reached water, and all the girls ran into it. I tried drinking some; it tasted gross. Everyone had a difficult time scaling this steep and slippery slope; we all fell and it was pretty scary and took a long time. I wore my Jack the Ripper hat! The hike was very arduous, and we got kinda lost and had to sit out for a while as the counselors tried to piece together where we were going. We finally reached the stream after a VERY long hike, and we were all thrilled to get in the water! Hung out with Maxx and Zach a lot. It was really fun putting my head under the waterfall, even if it displaced my contact lenses. Discussed college options/possibilities with Hannah P. and others on the way back. Went to Orthodox services for Shabbat...the last Nesiya Shabbat!
