We're Hot Then We're Cold

Well everyone, another two weeks have come and gone here at the good ole Jerusalem Center. Here were some of the highlights that won't get a photo shout out. 

1. Valentines Day! It was great. We had a dance and a lot of people wrote valentines to each other.

2. Dodge ball tournament!! This has honestly been one of the most entertaining things I have ever seen. It was so hilarious, I was crying with laughter. Some people got super into it (let's just say that we saw some peoples true colors), while others were praying to get hit so they could be out. And guess whose team made it to the championship game? That's right. Mine. We don't need to talk about that game though. Regardless, it was extremely fun. 

4. We went to the holocaust museum on a field trip. 

3. I get called out by guys on the street a lot. They want pictures, and sometimes even a kiss. But then today someone threw a huge snowball at me (more on the snow later). I guess people show their desire in different ways.

Okay, picture time.

 Our favorite bakery. I don't know the name though because I can't read Hebrew. 

Never underestimate the power of a good baked good.

Hezikiahs Tunnel! It was so cool. Definitely worth doing.

The Rockefeller Museum 

This is just a random picture from one of our field trips. It was so cold we were huddling together like a group of penguins. 

That is my home. Also, check out the satellite dish house. 

We got to play the Carillon bells in the YMCA tower, the bells that everyone hears when it is a new hour. This is Jace and I playing "When the Saints Go Marching In" for all of Jerusalem to hear.

The Western Wall

Here is an insider look. The Brother Anderson Old Testament class early in the morning. 8am class everyday.

It snowed again in Jerusalem. And this time, it really actually snowed. This was yesterday morning outside my bedroom. I can't believe it is snowing here and not in Provo-which was one of the main reasons I came winter, but don't worry, I'm learning to deal with it. We also decided to walk into the city later in the afternoon. We were all soaking by the end because not surprisingly, none of us brought shoes suitable for snow.
