day 2? or maybe 3....

the long anticipated trip is coming at last.....

i'm headed to israel!

in november of last year, the study abroad office at apu offered a three week summer study abroad experience to students. knowing that this was the only way i (or my parents) would feel comfortable with a visit to the Holy Land, i figured......yeah......i'll do that.

so here it is at last......we fly out of lax at 9:15 on saturday........and we'll be in jerusalem late sunday afternoon.

disclaimer.......not particularly excited about the ridiculously long flight........but thrilled that i'm able to go regardless. i know there's much to learn and experience......and just too much to fully grasp or even remotely comprehend.

feel free to keep up with our journey. i can't promise consistency......but i will thoroughly enjoy public dialog......a taste from the other side of the "pond."
