Arrived at JUC

Well today was beautiful in the morning but later on got really windy and rainy. I got enough sleep at the hostel and had a great Israeli breakfast with Alejandro and Greg (the two new friends). We then parted ways as they were going around the Old City to follow the route of Christ from the Upper Room to the hill when Jesus rose after witnessing to the thousands before he ascended to heaven. I grabbed a taxi and he took me to JUC, he was great and gave me a deal for him to take me to the campus on Mt. Zion. I was greeted by the President's wife and was taken to my room on the 4th floor (with no elevator) with narrow stairways and steep slippery stairs. I then walked around the campus and took pictures, then I was greeted by other students from Minnesota, Kansas, Alberta, New York, Colorado, etc. As of now, I am moved in and ready for the weekend(Shabbat) then classes begin on Monday.
