Nazareth by Caitlin D.

I'm here!!

Lol Soo, its super funny how i just got finished with drivers ed, the drives portion, and here Iam watching Isreali's drive. my mother would FREAK. haha and my teachers would fail them. Honking is common. its to say hello, its to let someone know your coming in their blind spot and it is used to tell people to move! Gosh, i dont even know how to describe how dangerous driving here is. We hail taxes to get from St. Margrets to town, (cuz we live on a hill, and this whole city IS a hill), typically about 30-45 sheckles. Which is like.....ten bucks? Maybe less. 200 sheckles is $50. Clothes here at an American like price is about 65-99 sheckles. so about 15-25 dollars. Anywho, it was a 2hour drive to get from the airport to St. Margrets. Everything is in Hebrew and Arabic, sometimes to always in English. NEVER AMERICAN. Im getting tanner everyday and its great actually. The souther you go the hotter it gets and even sun screen wont "protect
you". Its a Saturday today, at 16.24....five twentyfour pm.

The flight over to Tel Aviv was short. Amazingly, four hours. But ya.Oddly enough my throat gets drier than my lips, and i am a chapstick-holic lol. Today we went to church sights, so i wore a skirt. Calm mum, calm....You get sweaty no matter what but it gets slightly breezy here so i cool down. Even our new friend Lara got hot today (she is Palestinian).

OH! and every morning and every night there is the Muslim [mosque] that a guy goes and sings prayer for about n hour er soo.

Toodlz,

Caitlin
