On the Way -- Almost

I don't know about you, but I am in just a bit of a, what do they call it, a tizzy, I think -- as we near this Thursday. I'm calling contacts, putting things together, thinking about packing, looking at the weather -- here and there, not to mention a late idea to get a bus to bring those who are interested to the airport.

There's a slight chance of rain when we arrive, but Shabbat promises to be sunny and cool, in the 60s.

The teachers' strike in Israel is over, which means no idle adolescents in the streets -- besides our adolescents, that is.

Well, I just wanted to officially open the blog as we prepare for an amazing trip of a lifetime.

Just read of your day at Masada and what great memories of our trip it evoked. Drink in every minute as it is the adventure of a lifetime. Happy New Year to all!

Hello Everyone,

As I was driving in my car today, I turned to Evan and stated that your group, no doubt by now, was eveloped in the magic of what is Israel. He agreed. I stated "what a great trip Israel was".. I wondered how many of you that are on the trip are having your lives influenced and changed forever by that enchanting place... our other home, young and older alike.

We are all missing you here in Newton and can't wait till you return home so we can hear all of the great stories, appreciate your new bonds and hear the reactions of your hearts.

See you soon. Be safe and have a great rest of the trip.
