Day 7 - Monday, May 14th
Today, my mind and heart
took in Israel’s history and legacy.
When Bus 990 visited Mount Hertzl, we paid our respects to the fallen
soldiers of the IDF, Israel Defense Force and to past prime ministers such as
Yitzhak Rabin, my respect and passion for Israel and its astounding history
only made me love this country more. After that, we headed on over to Tel Aviv,
to the Independence Hall where on May 14th, 1948, Israel was declared an
independent state. I can definitely admit being right in front of the podium
where David Ben Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister, signed the Israel’s Declaration
of Independence only has me awed at the power line of previous leader we have
had in the past. Finally, we went to Jaffa, an outdoor, with ton of vendors who
were loud and vying for our attention. But its their job, what can I say?
Overall, an amazing day with a group of amazing people in an absolutely amazing
country.
Love Liz Faeder and the
BUS 990 CREW
