Our journey from Melbourne to Ben-Gurion took 36 hours.
A mere blip over a lifetime, but nevertheless a fairly painful amount of time to travel.
Melbourne-Sydney-Bangkok-London-Tel Aviv.
The Good Shepherd. From what I could hear an excellent film. The mumbled dialogue was no match for the jet engines.
Letters from Iwo Jima. Awesome. Ken Watanbe was fantastic, as was basically the entire cast.
BA is even worse than Qantas. But the lounge at Heathrow is quite nice.
English people complain a lot.
Arriving in Tel Aviv shorly before Shabbat was fascinating - the streets mostly quiet, but a bustling market as people finished their shopping.
Israeli immigration surpriusingly stress-free. M opted for her visa on a piece of paper but I got mine stamped in my passport [this is offered as an option as a number of countries will not allow entry to people who have visited israel].
