Harry in Israel: A Blur
http://harryinisrael.blogspot.com/2009/09/blur.html
Wednesday, September 2, 2009. The past few weeks have been an absolute blur here. I'll try to break down exactly what has been happening during this time period. My Gadna experience was a bit different as the entirety of the week was spent with only Garin Tzabar participants. Unlike some Israeli teens, our motivation to join the army is not a question. We came here and joined the Garin Tzabar project to be a part of the IDF. During our last day of Gadna most of us finally got our new cellphones! Next I w...

http://harryinisrael.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 11, 2008. So I know its been awhile since my last blog, but I'm gonna give you all a quick update. I landed back in Israel on 6/7/08, please note that this is the European date and not the American date. (In Europe its Day/Month/Year.) Anyway, I landed in Tel Aviv and spent the night in an air conditioned dormitory at Hayarkon 48. (Israel's most famous Hostel.) It was an uneventful night with not much to talk about. I still need to:. Get my Student Loans to come through. My Picasa Web Albums.

http://harryinisrael.blogspot.com/2009/03/500.html
Sunday, March 1, 2009. About 501 days ago.I was getting on a plane in New York bound for Israel. Life seemed very uncertain at the time. Where was I going to live in Israel? How was I going to like living in a land so foreign to my own? What would my life be like for the next 18 months? Here I am exactly 500 days abroad. In all of that time I've seen and done incredible things. On this the 500th day of my adventure I'll recap a few of the great things I've done. Oh So Many Jokes about the Factory). I've ...
