*FROM 11/27*
I don’t know how this happened but as of today we only have one month left here! This morning I slept in, skipped breakfast (I ate a chewy bar I had brought), started my JHist. Essay, and got ready for services. At 10:45 we had services on the balcony facing the water (it was an extremely pretty view). After services we had a few minutes to change and get everything we would need for our hike. After lunch we left for our hike of the red canyon. We walked through most of it on our own, taking everything in (it was nice to have peace and quiet during an activity). Everything was so peaceful and calming…and red. Then we hiked up part of the canyon and back to the bus. When we got back to the hostel we had an hour and a half to pack up and shower. Then we had a long drive to the Bedouin tents. When we got there we were greeted with tea and coffee (I didn’t have either) and then a really good dinner. Then tents weren’t what any of us were expecting b/c we went to ones that had been made for tourists and to give a taste of the Bedouin life (but there wasn’t even a place to buy Israeli puffy pants ☹). Then we had time to relax by the fire or in the tent and then we all went to bed in the big EIE Fall 2010 tent.
