Today, We Dance!

Well, we didn't really dance. But that's what Maruan said to us as we walked up today, all the while doing the "wax on, wax off" motion from the Karate Kid movie. And that's what we did today with the drywall. We were back in the same room with the high ceiling, this time sanding down the grooves in the plaster to leave the room ready for a coat of paint. We used the same scaffolding tower from yesterday to sand down the walls from the very top to the very bottom, at times having to anchor a leg around a pole to reach a far part of the wall. The black tile floor was completely covered in a fine white dust when we were finished.

Today is our last day in Haifa. Jason will be picking us up tomorrow for lunch and will take us to the town of Akko (or Acre) with his family. Then he'll drive us east to Tiberias where we'll meet up with a certain Rosaura who is leading the excavation of the ancient city of Migdal (Magdala, where Mary Magdalene was from.) I'm kind of excited to be moving on to the Galilee region again! But before that, there is a lot of laundry and cleaning and packing to do!

Filafel for lunch!

On the way back home, we stopped at a grocery store for some goodies, including these lychees, which to me, taste like awesomeness. Then Jordan led the way home and GOT US LOST! haha I promised not to bring  it up but it was way too long of a walk back home to just let it pass without mention here.
