Day 27 As customary on Shabbat mornings, a late wake up was the start of the day. After a relaxing breakfast with Max, I got stuck into her travel guides researching everywhere we are going. Once I was done that, people were arriving for lunch including Danya, Zvi, Yaron and the girls as well as Rae. A ridiculously large lunch was served and we all ate until we were stuffed. By the time lunch was finished it was 5:30 and I had to say my goodbyes. Max soon after...

Day 28, 29 and 30 As this will be my very last blog from the holy land, I better step the writing up a notch. However after the past few days I have had in Eilat and Tel Aviv, this won't be much of a challenge. Whilst it was not so much fun at first, hopping on a 5 hour bus ride down to Eilat at 7am and walking for half an hour in the plus 40 degree heat searching for our hostel, the trip certainly picked up from there. Arriving at our hostel we were upgraded...

Day 26 A good 6 hours of sleep is all i got last night and it wasn't a great start to my last day in Tel Aviv. Waking up at 11, I made my way to meet Gav and we walked to the Art markets.

Day 24 & 25 Been in a bit of a rush lately and so this one is going to be a 2 for 1. Also I must mention that Wednesday was Adams birthday and I hope everyone remembered to send him some love. :) A luxurious walk down to the boys hostel was how I started the day today. Azza had just moved in with Zac and Aidan at Hayarkon hostel and Gav was off with his sister for her birthday, meaning that if anything was going to happen, I would have to meet them there. A...

Day 23 4:30am. That's right 4:30. Thats the time we woke up this morning. (not to be confused with the time we went to bed - Cherrise) And it wasn't an easy wake up either. Hauling ourselves out our hostel and beginning our climb of Masada up the infamous snake trail. After some initial confusion getting onto the track remedied by some rock climbing, we were on our way and up the mountain within 40 minutes. Getting up with time to spare we relaxed for a while...
