If swimming is such good exercise how come whales are so fat? Because they

swim with their mouths open and all the food just goes in whilst they are
exercising!

Funniest Movement Moment: On machaneh back in New Zealand, 3 other girls and
I were in the river washing ourselves before Shabbat. We had the river all to
ourselves (known as “in the wilderness”). All our Shabbat clothes were on the river
bank and all of a sudden it started to rain and we didn’t know what to do. One of

the girls, actually my cousin Carmel, jumped out of the river butt-naked and does a
big starfish over our clothes [apparently a star fish is to make oneself big – in
order to shield the clothes from getting wet?]. Twenty seconds later it starts
hailing like you will never see. Because it is freezing cold the hail is burning our

bodies. We are in the river up to our noses in freezing water and it is killing us,
but Carmel is exposed… All of a sudden we saw Carmel twitching with pain and she
starts screaming. She eventually gives up and runs back into the water.
