Day 6….Gabe

Posted by glovin33 on April 13, 2008

Ok.  So today was a day.  We started with a Lutheran Church Service.  Which is just like every other lutheran church service i’ve been too in my entire life.  THe same songs the same order and the same everything…..You all need to come to the church malika has been taking me.  It gets out of that rut that is sunday services.  I just wish i could throw out all the hymnals and just enjoy a service that is inpirational and moving.  OK…done ranting….

I’m sure andy covered most of it so I’ll talk about Lillian….our tour guide.  We went to the holocost museum and she told us her story of living through the holocost and how her family lived through it.  She cried and it was good for all of us to put a face that we loved to the stories.  Then we went through the museum which was too much to handle in one day, especially with all the other tourists there.  But it’s important.  Very….

One thing that was a little weird today was all the israeli army everywhere.  I’m not used to seeing people with guns and today they were doing training.  Guns and troops everywhere.  Most were no more than 18.  And women with guns.  Men and women are the same in israel when it comes to the army.  So it was crazy with all the guns. 

This is a really great experience.  I wish you were all here.  Ok…i’m out.
