Day 3 in Israel began with a visit with the LA-Tel Aviv Teen Partnership. Our group met with 8 students from various Tel Aviv High Schools who participated in the exchange program with Temple Judea and other Jewish schools back in Los Angeles. It was a fascinating dialogue - parents were surprised to learn about the freedom and independence Israeli teens have at such young ages - our youth immediately began to lobby hard for the same.
We then went to Independence Hall where we heard the story of the establishment of the State of Israel. Following that we travelled south to Beit Guevrin for an archeological dig and then to Kfar Nokdim in the Negev Desert for an incredible bedouin experience with Camel Rides.
