Israel Bound!

Heading to Israel in a few days on a tour with BBYO - Israel Family Journey. Thank you to UJC - Alaska for our scholarship to be able to join in the fun!

Two weeks of a guided tour then one week on our own!

We are flying Anchorage to Frankfurt via Condor airlines then Frankfurt to Israel via El Al. Arriving in the middle of the night, we will be taken to Jerusalem to check in to our hotel. The plan is to sleep a bit, have breakfast and then head out to wander a bit before joining the tour group in the afternoon.

The plan is to post some photos here along with some commentary by both Mark and me. Since I love sunrises and sunsets, I thought this was a fun picture to start with. From the northernmost place we've been so far and now heading south!
