Wednesday, 4/27Met Casey & David for lunch at Coffee Shop. Casey went to go meet a friend, and David & I went to Tel Aviv to spend the afternoon there. Only flaw in our plan, was we didn't check bus schedules ahead of time. We got to Tel Aviv at 4:30, the last bus to Rosh Pina was at 5. Oh well... Hung out in the bus station, then took a ridiculous bus ride in horrible traffic to Rosh Pina.
We were staying with Kenny & Orli, and met Kenny for dinner right when we got there. Then David & I joined Jon Jon (whose now just Jon) and his friends for a "trip." Basically we just drove to the Jordan river and hung out. I forgotten how funny it is to hang out when you're 15/16. Half the time was spent talking about what was going to happen/getting ready to go. So entertaining. Him and his friends are all into ATVs and toys like that. It was kinda cute...
Thursday, 4/28Casey got to Rosh Pina at about 3, and I hung out with her while David drove Jon to look at an ATV in Tzfat (telling you, the kid's slightly obsessed). Casey just got dreads the other day, so I spent a lot of time helping her with them. I'm so jealous... Been seriously thinking about doing them again...
Thursday night we hung out at Cafe Gitel, listening to the live music, then hung out with Jon & his friends (and worked on Casey's hair).
Friday, 4/29After looking at some cute pictures of Dad when he was younger (gotta love the beard!), I caught the bus back to Yerushalyim. Wasn't a bad ride. Met this cool kid who goes to Mayanot, Moshe/Marlin (Moshe here, Marlin in the States), so I just talked with him the whole time. It's so weird to spend so much time talking with someone you'll never see again... My instinct is always to hold on, to not let anyone (or anything) go. But sometimes it's okay to just have isolated cool experiences, without needing anything else. I'm working on that...
And now, I'm getting ready for yet another wonderful Shabbas (and Chag) in Yerushalyim. Gotta love this place. :)
Shabbat Shalom and Chag Sameach!
