Arrival Day!

Today is a day that feels like many days. I am surprisingly not tired, even though I barely got an hour of sleep on the plane.
Here is the day:
-wake up early, have a nice snuggle and head to APU with the bf and his roomie.
-drive to LAX and check in
-go through intense interviewing about my background and luggage
-make it through security *whew*
-LAX power goes off...so we left an hour and a half late, which really isn't too bad, just boring. besides I met TRAIN. i know. pretty cool.
-watched Whip it and 2012. i really liked Whip it, but 2012 wasn't bad enough for me to enjoy.
-played back of seat airplane tetris
-14 hours later....threw up in a travel bag, landed in Tel Aviv and went through more intense questioning about my intentions in Israel.
-drove to Jerusalem
-walked a .4 miles (mostly up hill) with all of my luggage, and then up 7 flights of stairs to my room
-ate some chicken (i was STARVING), apple, baked potato, salad and weird punch
-shower shower shower shower shower shower shower
-and now I am here, laying on my bunk bed, typing away while half the group sleeps and the other adventures into old town...which I will do tomorrow.

Basically, so far Israel looks like a much cooler version of central California.


and my converter decided not to work :( so I'm off to buy a new one tomorrow...
