Our last day with the kids
Regretfully, today was our last day working with the kids. Tomorrow, we will be heading to the refugee camp but instead of working with the kids, we will have a farewell party. So, instead of signing up for only one section, I decided to wander around and take photos. I ended up taking about 1000 in a couple hours so the photos below are only a small excerpt…
On a side note, my blogging frequency may slow down even more in the next few days. For our last weekend in Palestine, our local hosts are taking us to Ramallah (where we may get to meet Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas), Bethlehem, and Hebron. I have already been to Ramallah but I have been dying to see Bethlehem and Hebron. I imagine we’ll be on a pretty tight schedule and I don’t know what the Internet situation will be like. Rest assured, though, once I am in one place at the beginning of next week (either Jerusalem or Ramallah), I will update the blog with some stories and photos.

Shawn, these posts have been amazing. I love the candid shots that you are getting of local people in their local lives. Israel and Palestine are on my dream travel destinations list and your photos inspire me to bump it up to sooner rather than later!
