Just some pictures of summertime in Jerusalem...
This sign hangs in every room of my ulpan (where I study Hebrew).
Apparently, if I repeat this affirmation 12 times a day, I will speak Hebrew fluently.
So far, it's not working. But... baby steps.
Blue skies!
After ulpan, we decompress with a walk on the rakevet.
Beautiful flowers like this are all over my neighborhood. I love seeing the different colors wherever I walk against the Jerusalem stone.
In the summer, there are all kinds of concerts and outdoor events in Jerusalem.
This was at the Mosh Ben Ari concert. So fun!
Friends waiting for the concert to start!
Jerusalem summer nights! Me, Naomi, and Sara
The nightlife in Jerusalem is very interesting. It's a strange mix of college students from Hebrew U, sketchy backpackers, Hassidic Jews dancing in the street, army hotties, and 18 year-old Americans drinking for the first time.
Needless to say, the people-watching is prime.
Shadester on Emek Refaim.
Elizabeth, my dear friend and soul mate, will be here for the year! Traveling, learning, and living all over Israel. And playing with me, of course.
Balabasta festival: The shuk (market) transforms into a huge festival on Sunday nights in the summer.
Yes, that is a giant pair of underwear hanging on a clothesline.
