Shabbat Update
Today the group continued their time in Eilat. They started at Mt. Tzfachot continued with swimming in the sea, and now they preparing for Shabbat. Today's evening and tomorrow they will have a Shabbat programme and in Motsaey Shabbat they will go to a disco on a ship.
Tzfachot in Hebrew is the name for a geological form of metamorphic rock called slate. The group start climbing a few hundreds meters from Eilat Field School to the top of the mount. There they enjoyed the nice view at the summit. From there you can see four different countries: Israel to the north, Jordan to the east, Saudi Arabia to the southeast, and Egypt to the south and west. The wadi reaches the Club Inn hotel, near some acacia trees.
Shabbat Shalom,
