I know this is coming to you late, so don't worry about the time
marked on this.
On Tuesday we went to a couple mounds which used to be ancient cities
(tels) namely Beth Shemesh and Lacish. We got to looks around for
pottery shards which was really fun. They are everywhere, just lying
on the ground. Most of the pottery was from the crusade period but I
actually found a piece of pottery from the Phillistine era at Beth
Shemesh! It was just chilling on the ground and I scooped it up.
In the afternoon we got to swim in the Mediteranean. Oh man, it was
the best swim of my life. After a week of climbing hills and treking
around in the heat it was so good to swim. The sand was fine the water
was the perfect warm temperature with very little seaweed and the
waves! They were sometimes big and it kind of beat you around a
little, but it was so fun to just be in the ocean, with all my
classmates.
In the evening we came to the hostel we will be staying at. It is
actually really nice. There are five beds in the room but only three
of us with two sinks, a shower and a mini fridge!
I was dead tired by the end of the day. It was great.
Love
Lauren
