Ulpan Tiyul

Well today was a break from classes and we headed off on another day out. This time we went towards the Golan, we stopped off in Ein Gev for a brief stop and a bit of lesson, before heading off to plant trees in an area run by KKL and JNF and that was pretty cool, there is a picture at the bottom of the tree I planted... hope I can go back and find it, see how it growing :-).

Then for the afternoon we went to Hamat Gader Israel's Largest and Oldest Spa Complex, which apart from contain hot pools for people to swim and relax in, also has a hotel, and animal enclosures including a crocodile farm which is the largest in the middle east. So that was pretty cool to see. There was also a Parrot show which was very entertaining to watch. After that it was onto the Hot springs for an hour and a bit, if someone had said I'd be in an outside heated pool in February a few months ago before I left England I would have thought they were crazy, but I was and it was fun and very nice to relax. Sadly it had to come to an end. Back to classes in the morning, but hey the weekend is just 1 day away :-). And we have a tiyul to Jerusalem to look forward to, so all in all fun and interesting times at the moment, long may they continue
