Last dig updates, and now Jaffa!

With the dig at Gezer officially finished, now I am staying in Jaffa with my dad and sister, who came in yesterday. Later this week we will meet up with the group from Hebrew Union (Chelsea's school) and stay in Jerusalem. I don't think I'm going to want to leave Jaffa! I could live here - it's so nice, right by the Mediterranean and an ideal location in so many ways. It's a nice historic town in a new city, great weather and views.

Scroll down for photos & final dig videos!
