ARRIVAL IN ISRAEL
ISRAEL FROM 5000 FEET
It was a balmy 97degree day when we arrived in Israel. After an
uneventful passport control, we jumped in a cab (no AC) with eight new travel friends (read “total strangers”) and made our way to Jerusalem. The cab driver zigzagged his way around the city dropping off his passengers at Yeshivas, hotels and apartments. We definitely saw the non-tourist side of the city… you know where real people live and work. After a nice dinner on Ben Yehuda Street, jet lag won and the next thing I knew, the sun was beaming into the hotel room. Time for hotel room Turkish coffee!
