The amazing people that I'm exploring Jerusalem with: Ben, Katie, and Heidi, after our rendezvous at Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv.


The view from just inside the Jaffa Gate . . . after missing a bus ride, finding the right bus, taking a taxi, and finally finding our hostel, nestled in the Christian Quarter of the Old City. It was worth it!

So much has happened since the last time I slept in a bed! From almost not making the flight to Tel Aviv in New York, to almost getting on bus #947 to Haifa instead of #947 to Jerusalem, to lugging our suitcases up the steps and through the streets of the Arab marketplace in search of our hostel, it has been an amazing trip!

More updates to follow, but know this: all is well, the company is outstanding, and I can't wait to see what will happen!
