After AM rounds ( all kids look better including the baby girl with the trach), we have the traditional tea and kanafee with the hospital administrators. They gives us plaques, certificates, and Palestinian scarves.
It is 1pm when we start our tour day. Off to Hebron. One of the oldest cities in the world. Glass and ceramic factories. Abraham's tomb in a building that is divided into a mosque and a synagogue.
There is a lot of conflict in Hebron due to very close contact with the settlers.

Then we dash to Bethlehem, making it into the church as doors close. I am hypoglycemic and can only handle the tour for 10 minutes before I bail to get some food.

It is another long day. 2 hour drive back to hotel and dinner.
