Walking and Spanish

It was a wonderful day, it was a free day. This morning I got some homework done, we're headed to Jericho tomorrow and I needed to get ready academically. At 10am a few of us headed to the Jerusalem YMCA, you've never seen a YMCA like this one. The building is right across the street from the King David Hotel, that's where presidents stay, and is huge. It is all stone with a huge bell tower. We went to there to play the bells actually. The organist for the center goes every Sunday and plays. I was able to play "Lead Kindly Light," "For the Beauty of the Earth," and "Teach me to Walk in the Light," it was an incredible experience. Ofter the tower we headed over to a few museums, it was great. Matt, I bought my first Falafal, GREAT! This evening was the real highlight of the day. A Holocaust survivor came to speak to us. His name is Elias, he's from Poland. Elias only speaks Hebrew and Spanish (he lived in Guatemala for 22 years after the war), so I had the opportunity to translate some for him. He was an amazing person, he radiated love for everybody, including the Nazi Germans. He said he lives by two motto's; Believe in God and Work to Live! Elias is a practicing Jew and was really amazing to hear, I recorded the whole thing. Well, I need to head to bed. Thanks again for all who made this possible, it has been amazing! God Bless.

p.s. I ran into a woman and her granddaughter from Buenos Aires, it made me trunky!
