We landed on time in Israel. A first stop at Independence Hall brought us to the very place David Ben Gurion proclaimed a Jewish homeland on May 14, 1948. We heard the recorded voice and signed our own declaration as members of Beth Israel pledged to Israel's future and the future of our people. Followed by Israeli fare and free time along the Mediterranean Sea in Tel Aviv, we're ready for a full week ahead.
Shalom from Israel. - Rabbi David Lyon

A few words from our travelers will be posted when possible. Come back to our blog often over the next two weeks to see where we have been, what we have seen, and how much we have learned!
