Arrival

The trip here went smoothly, in spite of our second leg (Paris to Tel Aviv) being delayed about 30 minutes or so. We breezed through customs (which was basically non-existent, no questions asked. Just waltzed on through. A far different experience that when I traveled to Israel back in 1997) and met up with our trip leader. After an orientation meeting we walked to a small restaurant for dinner. Tomorrow, Wednesday, we'll see more of Tel Aviv and visit Jaffa (Joppa).

Here are some pix of our travel today.

We appreciate your prayers. This is a great group!

Loaded up on the bus from the church parking lot. Ready to hit the road!




Here's a pic of the whole group, fifteen of us in all, just before checking our bags at IAH.


Funky water fountains in Paris!




Flew Air France on the way here. We'll travel back on KLM. (Wish I knew French...)
