Blooper #1

In Haifa, Hannah, Nova and Henry Schalit were dying to get to the Beach and it was shabbat so there weren't buses running. So, we walked to the nearest Beach and there were locked gates. Henry, being the god of Chutzpah, asked five people if we could get into a sailing area that connected to the beach until someone let us in. We were told we could only stay a little while so we sat down on the beach and played in the sand and discussed our personal strengths while Henry took a nap. There were a lot of people there for a while and then fewer, but we made eye contact once in a while. We joked about getting locked in. Then when we were ready to go we walked over to the door and realized we could not get out because there was a giant padlock on it. We searched for other ways to exit and found none except for a hole in the fence that Hannah tried to climb through but didn't fit. There was barbed wire and a giant wall surrounding us. Then Hannah noticed a spot where the fence and some barbed wire ended out by some rocks partially in the water. We saw a guy across a parking lot and started waving our arms at him but he looked blankly at us, and then started walking towards us. He came down to the rocky spot that Hannah found and moved some barbed wire and motioned for us to come. One by one, we maneuvered our way down around the fence, up the rocks and into the parking lot, then squeezed through a gap in the parking lot gate and made it back onto the main road safely! The only thing we forgot was the bag of hummus and vegetables.

We also dodged a cybertoothshark, a man-eating walrus and a poisonous ruggaluch.
