I have arrived!

The title pretty much says it all. I flew British Airways. It was uneventful, though afterwards I heard that they have a really big problem with losing people's luggage. Luckily that didn't happen to me!

My flight connected at the London Heathrow airport. I bought a sandwich there using USD and I got pence back! It was awesome. Also, on the flight from London to Tel Aviv, they served mini bottles of wine with lunch...for free! That was cool.

I took the sheirut from the airport to the apartment. A sheirut is a van that seats around 10 people. This one had coach bus-style seats. Basically, the driver waits for 10 people going to the same general area in Jerusalem. It took awhile, but it only cost 50 shekels, instead of 200. ($12.60 instead of $50.4) The ride took almost an hour.

I met my roommate, who is really nice. The apartment is cool. I went with my roommate to her mom's house for dinner (20 minute drive)...and now it is almost midnight here and I am seriously exhausted. Goodnight!
