On a new adventure

Hello again, all!

I leave Wednesday for the next phase of my year of travel, a semester at Jerusalem University College (JUC). Right now I'm trying not to think about how much I have left to do-but it will all get done, I know. Here's what my travel schedule looks like:

1900 Wednesday 29 August: Fly out of Minneapolis
1015 Thursday 30 August: Arrive in Amsterdam (!) --Meet up with Janell and Ian, two friends from NWC who are also studying at JUC, and explore the city for a few hours!
2100 Thursday 30 August: Fly out of Amsterdam
221 Friday 31 August: Arrive in Tel Aviv, sherut (taxi) to Jerusalem

It will be a long journey, I'm sure, and I'm really glad I'm not arriving at 230 in the morning by myself! We're hoping that by the time we get through customs, find a sherut, and take the hour-long ride to Jerusalem, it won't be such an ungodly hour of the morning. I'll post again once I arrive; for now I have so much packing and cleaning and homework (yes, we have homework already!) that I try not to think about it, otherwise I start to implode. So I'm off to keep going on it all! Cheers!
