Moshav Amirim

March 25th, 2010 we traveled north, by train, up the coast of Israel through Haifa where we switched to a bus that drove us to this destination you see underneath. The 2 hours we sat eagerly


waiting on the train and bus didn't really prepare us for the darkness of the mountain side, in fact it was quite unnerving yet oddly exciting to step










off the platform onto the cold pavement. Looking across the road we saw this restaurant. We were comforted shortly by the bar tender who reassured us that he knew who Roi was, and that we actually had arrived at Moshav Amirim. When he pulled up in what looked like our old vans long lost cousin, we felt right at home.

That night we drove to our new home where we would be staying for the next 6 days. It was absolutely beautiful and lots of fun. Accompanying us on the Moshav was Roi and a handful of other volunteers all from Germany. We spend our days working together gardening and doing agriculture, along with lots of vegetarian lunches and relaxing. We got to meet many local Arabic and Hebrew people, and enjoyed the challenge in trying to understand each other!

Nick enjoyed himself so much he decided to convert to Judaism.... I though he was speaking in tongues when I realized it was just Hebrew(jk!)hahaha, refer to the picture with Nick and the skull
cap.



The next three pictures are of Johanna and the wheat grass from,




Guess where!??





thats right the side of the road.











. We shared this cup of sorrow together and continued in the persistant pressure from Roi for us to drink more wheat grass juice because it is healthy for you!!!! Our Adventure carries on.
