Day 1: O'Hare to Newark to Tel Aviv to Jerusalem!

We made it to Israel. All safe and sound. We arrived at Ben Gurion airport without any difficulties or delays. El Al was a fine carrier to take. The food was good and the security was better. We visited a biblical garden (Neot Kedummim), the Mount of Olives and the Temple Mount Sifting project. After dinner we visited the Western Wall. It's good to be back in Jerusalem. Tomorrow we see what breakfast will be like. Pancakes? I doubt it. Hope springs eternal.
