Because we had rented a Hertz car when we first arrived at the airport, they would not allow us to take the car to the West Bank. Nieem said he would drive us to the Israeli/West Bank check point where Youseff would pick us up on the other (West Bank) end. However, we were concerned that we would have to walk all of our bags across the check point. Fortunately, Azar told us yesterday that he has a friend who works at a rental car agency here in town that will rent us a car we can drive across the border. This way, we can leave the luggage in the car as we cross through the check point.
This was also a great blessing to Haley because it meant that we would not have to leave Nazareth until later this afternoon and she could go to one more day of school. Not only does she get to see her new friends one last time, it's "Sports Day" today (their version of "Field Day" events). Double Bonus!! Hunter and I also got the opportunity to spend one more morning in Chocolate cafĂ©. After switching the cars out and packing up, we will pick Haley up from school and head to the West Bank to Yousef’s parents’ house. We are excited to be with the leaders and start putting the finishing touches on camp.
