Snail Mail

 I've got the best roommates in the entire world.
I'm sitting in my New Testament class during the break as the mail is being passed out. I dared not get my hopes up that there would be a letter for me. But there was! And it's all thanks to six lovely girls. I went out to the beach and read their letters. THEN I discovered a gift card to THE best place in the entire world: yogurt land. I'm obsessed with frozen yogurt here people. So much so that a couple months ago I googled the closest one to Jerusalem. Unfortunately it was in some island by Africa.


Yesterday we went on a hike to a waterfall. It was so pretty every time we looked up our breath was taken away. It was one of those things that pictures can't give justice, but of course I tried.

Biblical Gardens

First off. Nature. hi, I've missed you. 
We went to the Biblical gardens today and had a hands-on experience of crushing hyssop, 
sheep herding, baking pitas on a camp fire and exploring the world of Biblical nature. 
I loved it. 
 Hyssop: an herb used in the passover to spread the lambs blood over the doorposts. 
Also, tastes good on pita.
