Day One...Continued

March 12
Day One…continued
Well we’ve been up for more than 24 hours now…and still going. After we landed it was supposed to be a 45 minute drive up the hill to Jerusalem and then dinner at the hotel’s grand restaurant. However, United airlines lost our luggage! And the luggage of several people in our group.

SO…this is Darren standing in front of the Lost and Found (Notice the Hebrew above his head? that says ‘lost found’) department of the Ben Gurrion Airport in Tel Aviv. Kate is sitting at his feet playing on her gameboy (such a great Christmas present).

Of course we are laughing about all of this. It’s no big deal. Kate’s luggage made it (how could you miss it…it’s bright orange with HUGE white flowers on it), so at least she has clothing…but Darren and I have nothing but the extra set of clothes in our backpacks. They should have our luggage to us by tomorrow, so we can manage. I love traveling…never ending excitement!
