We enjoyed a nice breakfast at Kibbutz Keturah and got our bags ready and loaded on the bus. We went on a short drive to Kibbutz Lotan. The kids continued learning about different kibbutzim and how this specific one is very eco friendly and sustainable. They learned all about composting and mud work, they even got to build there own bricks out of bud. After a nice delicious lunch the kids even composted there left over scraps and got back on the bus to head back to Kibbutz Keturah

We enjoyed an afternoon pool party with amazing views and then we headed back to our rooms to pack. At dusk, we headed off to the sand dunes for some sledding and reflection time.

We first tried sledding down the sand dunes on cardboard but then we ditched the cardboard to just roll down the dunes with only our bodies. After we were suitably covered in sand, we headed to the bottom of the dunes for reflection time. We had silent time for twenty minutes before sharing how we felt after our meditative experience.

For dinner, we made homemade pitas on a fire and ate them with special Israeli Nutella, other spreads and falafel. We all ate our stomachs were fill and headed back to the bus for a sing-a-long on the way back to our rooms after a long but amazing day!
