Noa, Erica & Myself
Yesterday a handful of us went to the subberb of Herzliya for an Alpha Epsilon PI (AEPI) beach volleyball tournament on Herzliya Pituach Beach. Of course, I slept through my alarm clock and had to make the journey myself, but thanks to the great directions Erica provided me, I actually made it without too much difficulty… To get there was quite a process. I had to take Sheirut #16 to the HaHagana Train Station (accidently got off at the central bus station tho… so ended up walking a little ways)… rode the train to Herzliya (only about 10-15 min) and then got on Bus #28 (for about 20 min). When I finally arrived, I met up with Erica and Lindsay on the beach and we cheered on team “Afternoon Delight” consisting of Noa, Brett, Mike, Joel (Community Involvement participants living in Kiryat Ekron) and Leetal.
After a few hours of sun and laughter (watching our team compete… in the ‘losing bracket’…), Erica and I decided to make our way back to Tel Aviv. Naturally, we both completely zoned out on the bus, missed our stop and spent a good amount of time on the side of the rode trying to figure out what direction to walk as we attempted to hail down the full and very limited taxis that drove past. Finally, one stopped and out of laziness and hunger… we decided to pay the 80 shekels to be taken straight home.
