I am in the middle of working on 2 articles, but I left the building shortly after 5pm today. This is good! I went to the shuk to buy more fruit...and then when I got home, I ODed on zatar bread, lychees, and mangos. Zomg! The fruit here is unreal.
And now for some superfab news...HILARY IS COMING TO VISIT ME! Her program is ending earlier than it was initially supposed to, and her parents gave her the green light to come! She will embark on the 12+ hour Odyssey that I underwent a month ago. We will have epic adventures.
I have done my fair share of touring around Israel, and Jerusalem in particular. But I have never really visited any of the Christian sites, so this will be new and exciting for the both of us!
Hilary is going to look at some guidebooks this weekend and come up with a list of things she wants to see/do. I'll try to make it possible to do everything. And I get to play tour guide!
I'm looking forward to writing up a "Tips for Visiting Israel" list with Hilary, because I'd love to hear her opinions. I wouldn't consider joining the Israel network on Facebook and I definitely wouldn't consider Jerusalem my home, because I'm a tourist. But I do know how to get around, especially in Jerusalem.
So this will be fun.
