In Israel

Greetings from Tel Aviv Israel... After two 12 hour flights one from Auckland to Seoul and then Seoul to Tel Aviv we have arrived in the land of Israel.. Although it was late at night when we landed and daylight saving was just about to kick in so that what little sleep we would get was further eroded by the time change.

It didint matter because we are in the land... I had exactly the same response as last time as we entered Israeli airspace I began to weep with joy and expectation.

The team finally arrived to their appointed bedrooms at the Mecure Hotel Bat Yam at around 1am which because of daylight saving became 2am.

I have awoken this morning to the sound of waves gently rolling into the beautiful becah of Bat Yam and like most early morning its quiet in Israel because the locals stayed up really late. Soon we will go down to breakfast and start the new day and the first day in Israel for most of the team of 30.

I will report more later.
