Tzuba Spring
Yesterday, Shabbat, was a BEATUTIFUL day!!! Check out my pictures on my picture page to see... In the afternoon I went on an optional walk to a spring on Kibbutz Tzuba with two Jewish History teachers, Ruven and Shira. Ruven has lived on Tzuba since 1979 and has discovered much of the archeological evidence on the kibbutz. The spring on Tzuba was where everyone bathed until the 1950's and the water is amazing.. we drank out of it. Ruven also uncovered the oldest painting of John the Baptist in a cave in Tzuba!! There are pictures of the tunnel we walked through also!!
Today in Jewish History we began studying the period of the Second Temple. We had a Babylonian festival and had to dress up like Babylonians!! We had amazing food like hummus, pita, israeli cookies, all different juices, etc... .yumyumyum...!!!
And, now i'm going to sleep!!! Shalom!
