While most of my grading is already completed and its not even noon on Saturday, I think I can put up another blog post.

Shawn has confirmed he is unable to attend.   So that means it looks like it is going to be Chris (for about a week) and I (for about two weeks).

I have picked where I am going to stay in Jerusalem:

The Jerusalem Inn

This hotel/Bed and Breakfast has WIFI!  Which is one of the main things I am looking for in case I have to deal with teaching or work stuff while on my vacation.

This place seems like it is in the middle of just about everything in Jerusalem.

Also, hehe my boss, she has been giving me advice since she is the world traveller.  She told me to travel with duct tape...LOL (precautionary things - and as she said that if we ever have to think like MacGuyver, the tape will be handy) also, to take things like peanut butter and granola bars LOL...since we wont wanting to be dining out all the time. LOL

Tasha did give me a couple of hotels to look into for Tel Aviv, that she said are the best...   That is going to be my next project.  Then I have to line up the tours.  I would like to do 3 of them.  The one to En Gedi/Masada/Dead Sea and another up north.   The Third one I am undecided on.  But basically the last major thing is nailing down the hotel in Tel Aviv and paying it for at for a week.

Other than that, its just a matter of planning what to do...once I am there.   WHOOOO!!!!!

The one thing I have been very lax on is learning Hebrew.  I just simply do not have enough time in the day.  I did like 2 lessons which is no where near enough...But between my day job, my teaching, working out with the trainer and the gym...I simply do not have enough hours in the day.  I tried to do it when I was sick...but LOL that was useless.  Maybe when it gets closer to the trip and things lighten up?
