First Day in Israel

The hotel that i stayed in had a big breakfast so I forced myself to eat as much as possible, I need to store up on nutrition when I can now that I'm on my own. I made a sandwich of honey and put it in my purse for later that day. I got a map, drew where my hostel was and how to get there put my backpack on and walked through Tel Aviv. I stopped at the market on the way which was really great, i love markets they are so colorful and lively. The best market was in Barcelona though. I was temped to buy a bunch of food there but that would me that i would just have to carry it and I wasn't up for that i had enough to carry. After walked through tel aviv for about 45 mins I finally reached my hostel. I was nervous about this hostel from the reviews on hostelworld.com but when i opened the door and Bob Dylan's Tambourine Man was playing I felt alright about it. Tel Aviv is much dirtier than I expected; there's a lot of trash on the street and power cords hanging all around it surprised me. There is also so much traffic that adds a certain level of pollution i'm sure. This man from the hostel showed me around the area and pointed me to the theater where my show is tonight. I'm really excited i'm finally going to see Batsheva dance company!
