Sunday's are our free days, its a little odd I'm still trying to get use to the idea of having church on Saturday, and then going out and shopping on what I'm use to as the Sabbath! So today was my first official day out in the city without having a teacher that knew everything there. Weirdly enough I felt a lot more at ease today than yesterday. I think yesterday was a little overwhelming and things here weren't how I expected them to be.

Here are some pictures of the past couple of days.

Explanation of the pictures- a group of us ventured out to Jerusalem we went to the Rockefeller Museum and saw some amazingly old artifacts... One of which was a drinking fountain, I didnt know that this was an actual artifact of the museum so me and Shannon were trying to figure out how it worked exactly. I was pushing on it and turning some knobs when the nice man came up to me and informed me that this was actually an artifact at the museum AWKWARD! hah He was laughing with us luckily so it was all good! After the museum we went to the west side of Jerusalem and found of course a McDonald's!!! It made me feel a little closer to home (except that they had a guard checking your purses and bags before you could go in) so we decided to get us some ice cream to top of the trip. And then before making the trip back of us ate at this pita place which smelt and looked really yummy. On the way back to the city we were able to go through Old Jerusalem and look at the shops and just make some mental notes about all of the cool things I want to bring home (sorry dad its all too tempting to pass by haha)!
