Ramat Negev Experience

Our internet has been extremely spotty so now that we are safely in Netanya, I have a good signal for Wifi and wanted to share the past few days.  As you can see from the pictures, everyone is having an amazing time here and sad that the trip will be coming to an end in about 4_+ days.  As many of you know, the situation in Israel has increased and we are safe in the northern part of Israel where we will spending the remaining time here.  Even though our itinerary will be changing and won't have the chance to go to Tel Aviv or Jerusalem again we will be making the most of our stay in Israel! 

Over the last few days, we spent time in Ramat HaNegev which is Colorado's partner region.  We made dinner in Poyke pots, went on an amazing hike and worked with kindergartners in some of their local schools.  

Today we headed up north to visit the underground bullet factory (Machon Ayalon) -http://www.gemsinisrael.com/e_article000012009.htm and then we finished by going to an amazing play in Jaffa at the Na'lagaat Theatre where all of the performers were deaf & blind.  A MUST SEE if you are ever out here.  Link - http://www.nalagaat.org.il/bread.php
