We've Arrived in The Holy Land of Israel!

absolutely gorgeous sunrise on
the plane!

we had extra time in Minneapolis
but the rest of the time was a rush!

so blessed to be able to experience
this trip with my 3rd child now!
God is good!

our huge plane with 400 passengers

 Yes we have arrived! Even after sitting on the plane for an hour and a half in Saskatoon, and also for an hour longer in Minneapolis AND an hour longer in New York City.(Delta had mechanical issues each time we wanted to take off).....we only arrived 45 minutes late in Tel Aviv. :) We literally ran from one gate to another in New York to catch our Tel Aviv flight. haha! It was an adventure!

we have arrived! our 1st group pic!

totally LOVE the sign on our bus!

a market on the street in Tel Aviv

hotel in Tel Aviv

WiFi reception in the hallway :)

snowing lots in Minneapolis but
we still got off the ground even
if it was an hour later

It's 17 degrees and we will go for a walk along the Mediteranean Sea after supper.  We're a little tired but so glad we have all our luggage and happy to have a little rest before supper. We have a great, comfortable brand new bus to travel on. yay!

had a fabulous meal at our hotel

the plane was HUGE - 400 passengers
and 2 levels! :)

the sights and smells at the
Mediterranean Sea are lovely!!
there's good ice cream here too! :)

After a FABULOUS meal at our hotel we went for a walk to grab some shekels from an ATM and enjoy our first sights and smells of the Mediterannean Sea! It was so beautiful!

dippin our feet in the
Mediterranean Sea! :)

But now it is 4 am, I got down here at 3 am cause I was wide awake and couldn't sleep. :) I slept for about 7 hours on the plane, not super solid but I felt very well rested after I woke up.

Early today, I ran into a glitch with my blog cause apparently I had maxed out my space for loading pics! OH NO! What could I do from here? Weeeeellllllll, my wonderful hubby was able to go on from home and purchase 20 MORE GIGS for me on my blog and now I have only used 4% of my space! haha!!  What would I do without pictures!!  :)  So, here's pics for ya'll now!!  Sorry for their scattered look today....maybe I am a little overtired, undertired, wide awake but should be sleeping. :) Anways...Enjoy the blog and pics!

So friends, our journey has begun and we will all enjoy it together! :)  Shalom!
