Week 3 Poem from Bus 6

Our week began as we were split into three, repairing the world, IDF, and… sea to sea.

Some of us went to go take a long hike, they did a lot of walking and spent some time on a…bike.

Some of us went to train as a new recruit, despite it being difficult it sure was a… hoot.

The rest of us went to go help with good works, having a clean mattress was just one of the… perks.

By Wednesday we were finally reunited, seeing our friends again made us truly… delighted.

The rest of the week was spent around the Galilee Sea, needing more sunscreen is something we all… foresee.

Just as our third week was coming to an end, our group was joined by new Israeli… friends.

We celebrated Shabbat and looked our very best, we were happy to wake up late because we needed the… rest.

Although this trip has been one awesome summer break, we miss all our friends and family in the bubble of… Crane Lake.
