Day Seven - Wednesday, October 31, 2012

Our group had the opportunity to utilize the morning hours visiting the Dead Sea where a number of attendees either bathed or lounged. We checked out of the hotel and stopped for lunch at Cafe Cafe at Almog junction for a delicious meal. We then traveled to Tel Aviv and walked through the new Rabin Center, dedicated to the history of society and democracy in Israel, with the life of Yitzhak Rabin serving as a connecting thread between the various sections of the exhibition - both chronologically and substantively.

After checking into the hotel we had a free evening to enjoy Tel Aviv - the "other" city that never sleeps. Our delegation was invited to a traditional Israeli dinner at the home of Idith and Hanan Schaham, friends of the Delaware Federation, who provided a delicious meal and warm hospitality. After dinner, Idith gave us a personal tour of the city.
