Shephelah Shuffle {8,003 skips}



We went to the Shephelah Country and  reenacted the David and Goliath story in the Elah Valley. We even busted out the sling shots and gave a few stones a fling or two, harder than it looks people...harder than it looks! 


It was slightly raining throughout the day - but we didn't mind one bit! 
The rain made the colors POP! Jerusalem is so beautiful and green, and flowers are blooming everywhere. I love it so much. I am so glad that I get to be here during this season!


                                                   
I am so so glad to be here with Meggi.

I love her. She is my best friend!


Looking up at the group as
they came down into the cave.
We sang hymns in here,
it sounded amazing
Girls making ourselves at home
Just look at this beauty!
The second part of the day we went to  Beit Guvrin, one of Israel's National Parks, and played around in Maresha. This city was so cool ! We went UNDERGROUND and played inside the caves, where we found wine presses, rooms, tombs, cisterns, pigeon farms . . . the works!

The caves were tons of fun to explore around in! They were like mazes! And, they gave us a break from standing outside in the rain all day : )

The last cavey thing we went into was a tomb room . . .

TO NARNIA!

Very cool day in Jeru. I loved seeing this different ancient way of life and culture.
