After 8 hours of hanging out at JFK, and 10 hours in the plane flying, we finally touched down in the Holy Land!!!! I had some delays getting on line so I apologize for the delay (especially to my beautiful bride and kids...). But we are here and it has been a great so far.
We stayed in Tel Aviv the first night at The Dan Panorama which overlooked the Mediteranean Sea. Very, very nice.
The flight over was quite an experience. I didn't get much sleep as the Hissidic (sp?) Jews were pacing the aisles ALL NIGHT long praying and would wake me up each time they came by. It was very odd to wake up and be looking into the face of a guy with a big black hat, long beard, and the crazy sideburns hanging down. There were also two Jewish women who got into a crazy argument that got pretty loud, but other than that.....it was uneventful:)
I had read that when they announced that you had landed in Israel, that everyone would applaud and celebrate..........it's true. And now that I have been here for a day and half, I can see why. It is an amazing place. More to come.
