Day 1...Travel, delays, and heat!

This is always a tedious day - travelling!
I think it’s probably fair too say that the journey was smooth - but slow...a small delay on the check-in and on the departure, but then a wait of almost 45 minutes to get our luggage at the Tel Aviv side...
But still, the plane was comfortable and a good flight

Flexibility is always the name of the game with pilgrimage - and we’ve arrived in a heat wave!  Having expected seasonal temperatures of around 24-26C, tomorrow is forecast to be 36C!  So we’ve had a rearrange of the itinerary and now plan to go up the Golan Heights to Caesarea Philippi tomorrow to escape to a higher altitude where it will be a bit cooler...

As we are now enroute to the hotel (the bus has wifi) I won’t be updating anymore tonight - watch this space for pictures of our first pilgrimage sites tomorrow...

I thought I had probably come to the end of the blog...but here’s one last entry... As I head to bed tonight ahead of an early wake-up call...
