TL-46-484 Update 1

Here’s an update of our trip. We started arriving to the airport at 10pm all the way until 4am. While all of us were really hyped up, some were also significantly late, which made it officially a group trip (being early and on time is almost always impossible when you have a bunch of people together). When filling up the green pass online form, a group of older women approached both me and Brandon (the other staff member) asking for help with their forms, thinking that we were working for the airline or something, which was really funny.

The flights were long and smooth. We were all tired but the adrenaline of landing in Israel boosted our energy and just like that we were ready to go. After meeting our tour guide, bus driver, and security guard we headed to Haifa were we saw the Bahai Gardens and had lunch. By the time we arrived at the hotel we were walking zombies. We ate dinner, we had a group activity where we celebrated Shayna for her birthday and then we went to sleep.

Today we woke up fresh and we are about to have a great day. We are going to hike and kayak. By now, we are no longer strangers, but a mini family eager to know each other more and explore Israel together.
