We are safely setting up in our flat in the hospital in Nazareth. We had good flights all the way. The flight from Dulles was crowded and they had changed aircraft type so we did not have the seats we thought we would have, but aside from that everything went very smoothly.
We were surprised to see that the flight from Paris to Tel Aviv was not full, except in the cheap seats. We were also surprised at the ease with which we went through passport control, got our luggage and through customs. It was not crowded at all. It seems that tourism is down a little.
Our regular taxi driver met us at the airport and drove us to the hospital via a MacDonalds on the way because we didn't want to be bothered with preparing food after we got to our apartment.
Tomorrow we will do some grocery shopping and try to get things better arranged but our hosts here had the flat alreadt set up and cleaned, and even had heaters in the bedrooms so we won't freeze to death when we go to bed. She even had microwavable bed warmers in the beds for us. That's service.
More news as things occur.
