After about 22.5 hours of flying, waiting, delayed flights, and flying again, I've finally arrived in the holy land: Jerusalem, Israel. Let me tell you from experience, it is different here. I absolutely love the culture, until night fall. The noises never stop, and people don't go to bed. As I'm writing this post from my living room, I can hear the unending voices bouncing around in the city as it makes its way through the open windows into the apartment.
Just as the voices never end, neither does the heat. Tomorrow (Saturday) it is set to get into the 90s. The humidity is pretty sticky too. Here are a couple of updated photos taken today at the time of this post.

Clal building where my school is located.
Jaffa Rd. facing South East.
Two big buildings.
Hmmm. Isn't it though.
Thanks for the great pictures! It sure looks a lot different than life on the farm back at home. Have you tried turning on a fan and keeping it running all night? It might make sleep a bit easier.
ReplyDeleteoh i c it looks like lots of bright lights and city lights!! super neat though and only 22.5/hrs of flying? Piece of cake lol!! Those photos do look pretty good, like they were taken by a photographer :) Well here in cali today is only supposed to be 102 which is almost cold....
