I'm back! But briefly--I need to sleep for a day or two. I am without words--the trip was incredible in all respects. (Well, to be honest, except one--my luggage is missing. The only thing that did not exceed my expectations was El Al. I'm not a fan. They assured me that 98% of lost luggage turns up, and that it will probably be on the next flight to arrive this afternoon. "What happens to the other 2%?" I asked. "Does it fall into the Atlantic?" They didn't laugh.)
[Update: My luggage has been located. It's somewhere between Tel Aviv, where it was held "for security reasons," and NYC. I guess my state of extreme exhaustion made me look dangerous.]
Once I find some new superlatives, and wake up, I'll be able to write some more. One thing I know for certain: before the trip, I had a feeling I wasn't supposed to visit Israel. I was wrong, completely. I was just waiting all my life for the right time.

Welocme home, aa! Can't wait to hear about your trip- I am so jealous! Sorry about your luggage- I've been there, believe me! Get some rest!
My experience with El Al is they have no sense of humor. (part of the security thing)
Oh my, you're home..........apparently I am snoozing as usual!! Can't wait to hear about your trip. Hope the luggage comes. Did you bring any dirt home? Hope so.
O.K. a.a. you've had a week to sleep off your jet lag...c'mon let's hear about the trip....we're all just hanging by our knuckles waiting!
I second that!
OK, OK! Soon. (Thank you for being impatient!) I have been...speechless. Also on the hunt for my luggage, which finally arrived on Sat., after a much longer vacation than mine. Also still jetlagged.
But, soon, really!
--aa.
ok.....you can relax.......but you just got us all wound up here waiting and we're excited!
