On Tuesday night a group of us headed to west j for the night, just to play! We found a park, some played frisbee with drunk kids....I decided to play on the playground instead. Then we found a benefit concert for soldiers and rocked out with them for awhile! good break from homework.

a very great place called ice city came to jerusalem. It was -10 degrees celsius which was probably the best feeling in the world. I couldn't stop putting my face on the ice. There were slides and an ice skating rink too! good day.
Cheerleading again. This time we flew David, David, and Dwight!
Today we went on some great adventures. We headed to Dormition abbey bright and early (and hot hot hot already) and found out that it was closed. So we went to the tomb of King David and then the Upper Room, which is the traditional site of the Last Supper. We sang a few sacrament hymns there (which was really cool and I wasn't being cynical at all). After that we headed to the YMCA to play the Carillon bells! One of the senior couples living at the center gets to play the bells every Sunday morning and they let us go with them this time. We practiced a few times on the practice "piano" and then we got to play songs for 60,000? (i think that's what they said)...anyways.. pretty much all of west jerusalem got to hear me and analise play the "Morning Song" on the bells. It was SO cool. Then we got to dong it 12 times for the noon hour! Success. After that....we went to a crepe place and had ice cream and nutella crepes for lunch. So good. but so messy. and so worth it. (i also tried buying semi- skinny skinny jeans at gap but they were way expensive. fail.....i neeeed skinny jeans). After all of those lovely adventures we were tired and decided to head home, but we had to stop for slushees along the way.
