The host family was wonderful. They lived right on the edge of the desert- their backyard is a huge cliff off a mountain. The dad spoke portugal, the mom spoke spanish, and the kids spoke Hebrew and none of them really spoke english, so basically, the conversation at the table was very limited. But the food, however, was not;damn the food was great! They had three kids- 16, 17, and 21, and one of them we saw the night before at the bar! Such a small town. They were very sweet and gave us all the leftovers and said we could come back whenever we pleased. :) Last night all of our power went out so we had to use candlelight but luckily it came back before the food in the fridge went bad. Today I'm going to apply for scholarships at boulder and maybe apply to Colorado College. Smaller colleges give out more scholarships and I think I'd like a smaller school better anyways..
One more thing! We got an orange kitten today!!!!! It was following our friend last night on the street so we brought it back to our apartment to feed it and it's chowing down right now on tuna. Soooo cute. Still doesn't have a name yet.
People can be so nice. I am just reading about the fires In Israel. Did you know that some Arab villages have opened up their homes to people who have been evacuated from theirs?! Even the Palastinians have come to help the Jewish people put out the fires. Netenyahu called President Abbas to thank him!
