We're Here

Shalom from Israel! Our group has arrived safe and sound. I can report that everyone is happy and doing well - Rebecca, Gunnar, Kyle, Noah, Ariel, Sammy, Sarah, Alex have been smiling and enjoying themselves despite the long hours without sleep. The adults are not doing so bad either. We arrived on time (early in fact) to Ben Gurion airport, met our tour guide, Roni, collected our bags, and boarded our personalized MRT bus. After a quick stop in Jaffa, we went to the hotel to enjoy the 5 S's (Swim, sun, snack, sleep, and whatever personal "s" was needed... for me it was "shower"). To the right ("under check out these websites") you'll find the link to our group's online photo album. Thanks for all the good wishes we have received! Tonight we have our welcome dinner, tomorrow we go to the Ayalon Institute in Rechovot and tour Tel Aviv before Shabbat.
