Monday after school, a group of us walked to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art…..and were rewarded for the long walk with some excellent exhibits….as well as loving again their permanent collection. Then another group set up a room for our special CAARI CELEBRATION……we filled the walls with colored papers on which were printed most of our activities……tutoring, gardening, hospital work, forest activity, museums, touring, dancing, listening to lectures, etc…..and between each activity were smaller papers ……one said eating and another said “sherutim” (bathrooms) as that seems to be what we do most…..we use the sherutim as soon as we get someplace and then again before we leave ………tables were set with flowers and balloons and the room looked quite festive. We celebrated the conclusion of our Community Service Portion of the CAARI Experience. Our favorite keyboard/singer joined us for an evening of singing, laughing and dancing…….and my group led the sing-a-long of the parodies we wrote……the evening was a super-success…..and if you watch a video that our coordinator will be posting, …..you will see our guide dancing……an absolute riot…..whether you know him or not…the evening has to be one of our special memories of this trip!!
