Writing Without Posting
The Internet access is a hassle. I’m once again in the lobby of our group’s hotel in Tel Aviv. Last night I wrote some new blog postings on my laptop, but can’t seem to get it into this lobby computer to upload. There’s wireless Internet access from the hotel next door, but it costs a fortune. And in just a few minutes our bus leaves to spend the day in Jenin, in the northern West Bank.
So when we get home this evening, I’ll bring my laptop to an Internet cafe a few blocks away, plug it in, pay a decent price, and share with the world some of my thoughts, and maybe some of my photos, of the last few days.
There’s another tour group in this hotel, a horde of young college students it looks like, I think from Birthright Israel. I saw their itinerary. There’s not a whole lot of overlap between what they’re seeing and what we’ve seen, though they do go to Kibbutz Metzer, where our FFIPP group went the first day. Maybe tonight we can get into some conversation with them and see what they think. Maybe tell them some of what we’ve seen….
