This week has been cloudy and showery, unlike our last week in Tiberias, where we had fine weather. The forecast is for showery or rainy weather for the next two weeks! In addition, we have been having high winds, howling at night, affecting the ability to sleep in our rooms.
This is the pattern for this week, work, a museum and a lecture after dinner. Friday, we serve as ushers for Tu’Bshvat tree planting, for which we got special, white sweatshirts, that we will wear, together with our KKL/JNF baseball caps.

Botanical Gardens at Tel Aviv University – pictures by Marcia Bercov
Four of the CAARI participants are volunteering at the Botanical Gardens. They are under the supervision of Tal. Both Marcia and Sig worked here in previous years and they were happy to see the staff and the facilities. Still much work to do in the seed collection room, weeding in various gardens and special projects. Along with Joan and Nancy they are in for an meaningful experience.
