Welcome to Israel!

Shalom Welcome to Israel! We boarded the plane with our backpacks on and sat down in our seats, then waited patently until the pilot and co-pilot were ready to fly the plane. As we boarded, the ticket taker stamped our ticket or hand, checked our passports and a flight attendant escorted us to our seat. Once we were in the air, the flight attendant served us popcorn and we listened to songs in Hebrew. The flight was not short, but it worked out well because we had plenty of popcorn. As the plane was landing the flight attendant pointed out items of geographical interest...The Negev Desert, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, Haifa etc. When the plane finally touch the ground we all were very hungry(the popcorn just wasn't enough),so we stopped for lunch in the airport and had some hummus, pita bread, and dates.
