Day 1....or should I say 2

As we arrived at the airport we were happy to be greeting by Alan who assisted us with our check in. The flight to Chicago was uneventful. We got there with plenty of time to do our international check in.

The flight to Madrid was long but I think most slept or watched Momma Mia/The Forbidden Kingdom.

The flight to Tel Aviv was an experience in patience as we were ALL, even the short people, cramped into a plane with way too many seats.

Our 1st sight of the Holy Land was exciting.

As tired as we were, we were excited to have arrived. We meet Asher and Gilly and away we went to Jappa.

Our 1st hotel in Bat Yam was nice. It was Shabbot, don't get on that elevator. We were up early and saw the morning come on the Mediterranean Sea.
