Back To Ragil

Our yom meyuchad was wild, and so it was great to get back to normal. The Amelim left this morning to go on tiyul. They started off hiking a trail a short drive from Galil, and spent the remainder of the day gently rafting down the Delaware River.

Plenty of chanichim took advantage of a new sport introduced into the daily lineup, synchronized swimming. They all went down to the pool and did their best routines set to music for lookers-on to watch. No word on whether they are going to Beijing later this summer.

The evening ended with a machaneh-wide karaoke and airband performance. Dozens of groups sang, lip-synced, danced and improvised to their favorite songs. We even had a live instrument folk song performance including violin, guitar and cello.

B'shalom,
Josh
