Off to Isreal (Kinda)
Well we awoke ready for out trip at 4:30 am Wednesday took off for the airport and our first flight was really fantastic (normal anyway). We had a 2.5 hour layover in MN that turned into 6 which then ate up ALL our layover time in NYC (JFK airport). Well to make a long story shorter we arrived in NY in the middle of a huge snowstorm. We were 10 minutes lake for our connection to Israel and of course they did not hold the plane for 5 of us who were heading to Israel. We were really "Lucky" though and were transferred to El Al airlines pronounced "LL with a yidish slur". For the next hour we were in amazing race getting shuttled having bad tickets and going back to Delta to LL to Delta to LL. FINALLY we got on the LL plane with 15 minutes to spare but nobody has any idea where our luggage is (oh well, I don't sweat much anyway!!).
It is now midnight NY time and we are happy campers (see the pic above, right!!). We then sat on the plane for 3 hours with a bunch of very nicely dressed Israelies until they closed the airport. They even served us some kind of Kosher sandwich which I cannot find words to describes for dinner. Oh Well!!
