On Sunday, after Shacharis and breakfast, the Bochurim took the short walk to Ir David, where we were shown the archaeological findings of the original city of Yerushalayim under the rule of Dovid HaMelech, and even the structure which they believe may have been the palace of Dovid. We then walked through the Siloam tunnel, which was chiseled out of the rock on the directive of Chizkiyahu HaMelech, to bring the water closer into the city of Yerushalayim, in preparation for the advance of the army of Sancheriv king of Ashur.

After wading through the waters of the ancient tunnel, we had a delicious Shawarma lunch and headed off to Menachem Begin Park in Tel Aviv where we got to go waterskiing, knee-boarding, kayaking, and finally the most awesome tubing!

As if that wasn't enough, for dinner we went to the Shuk Machane Yehuda. There the bochurim navigated the massive crowds to pick up dinner and some treats for themselves, with the money they each received.
