Arrival

I'm in Tel Aviv.

Travel was easy except that the flight from JFK to London was so bumpy that even I could not sleep. According to Foursquare, I set a new record -- visit an airport 4 days in a row.  SFO Wednesday, JFK Thursday, JFK Friday, LHR Saturday.

It's official.  After JFK and SFO, Heathrow is my most visited airport.  I can't quite maneuver it with my eyes closed but there is something very familiar about those long walks following the purple "Flight connections" signs.

Security in the Israel airport was fast and easy.  Google gave us invitation letters to keep the questions down to a minimum.  The security person asked me the name of my father and the name of my grandfather. Really? I don't know either of my grandfathers. I wonder if she actually knew the answer.

Visiting Jerusalem tomorrow.  Jerusalem is easily in my top 5 places to visit list.

Here are some obligatory hotel pictures.
