We had a free day yesterday so 30 of us headed over to Tel Aviv, about an hour away from Jerusalem and on the Coast. The place is pretty famous for its beaches. Also it's the site of ancient Joppa, where Peter received the revelation to bring the Gospel to the Gentiles. Three of us headed over to the old city, but since it was Sunday most of the churches and probably cool things to see were closed. However, there was an archeological excavation that had everything from super old bricks, to an Egyptian gateway, as well as stuff from other time periods. We headed back to the rest of the group to play in the water, build some sandcastles that were pretty cool, and chill on the beach. It was just about the right amount of time we spent on the beach. Afterward, we headed over to this place called Moses Burger, which had super good burgers but was kind of pricy. We then drove back to Jerusalem. Some people got completely fried and have spent all day sleeping and trying not to move. Luckily I laid on some SPF 70 a couple times and only a few random spots of my body were burned like my calf, scalp, and one part of my neck. We have midterms Thursday so I've spent like all day today with my head in books.
