The group had another wonderful Shabbat in Jerusalem. The scholar-in-residence was David Levy, a recent Drexel Alum - which was pretty exciting.
In the evening the group went to Ben-Yehuda Street and enjoyed the atmosphere to the Jerusalem Downtown.
Today, the group had an early trip to Har Herzl, Israel's largest military cemetery. The group visited the grave of Michael Levin who was known to some of the group. The experience was incredibly moving.
From Har Herzl the group went to Yad Vashem, the national Holocaust museum and memorial.
In the afternoon, it was a trip to Netivot, Philadelphia's partner city. Despite the pouring rain everyone enjoyed a scavenger hunt.
In the evening there was a closing circle, and a desperate search for the Eagles result! (Go Eagles)
Can't believe that the flight back is tomorrow morning!
