WELCOME TO TEL AVIV AND THE CITY HOTEL – The group from Eilat arrived in Tel Aviv on Sunday evening and greeted with a warm welcome by Rosalie Whitehill, CAARI participant for 10 years! Rosalie arrived in Israel a few days earlier, from Boston, She is one of the participants that will be taking part in the 4 week community service program. Rosalie reports – “Yes, weather is in upper 60’s and sunny…. just had my first slice of Israeli pizza….yum

The CAARI schedule for most of the week has been posted……”meet and greet” after dinner tonight……orientation and my presentation called “train the tutor” are tomorrow a.m.
Tomorrow night’s speaker is an IDF (Israeli defense force….the army) major and the topic is “Different Islamic Groups” so I am really looking forward to that.
Meeting Barbara and Anice waiting for her hug from Rosalie |
Yes, weather is in upper 60’s and sunny….right now it is about 2 p.m. and I have returned from getting my Israeli hair cut and a manicure, and picking up a few things I did not bring.(with the weather below freezing, I did not venture out to any stores the week before I came…..could not risk a slip on ice). Also just had my first slice of Israeli pizza….yum!
