Leavin' on a Jet Plane

We've been hanging out in Tel Aviv for the past couple of days. Among the highlights have been the beach, wandering around Old Jaffa, exploring the Carmel Market and enjoying one of Tel Aviv's many eclectic restaurants(Crap, I'm starting to sound like a guidebook. I need to go home.)

The Port of Jaffa (known as Joppa in biblical times). This would have been the port both Jonah and Paul sailed from.
Sunset on the Mediterranean. A fitting end to our trip.

Kind of end anyway. We still have a fair bit of traveling ahead of us. We will catch a taxi to the Tel Aviv airport in about 30 minutes. From there we will be in airports or on airplanes for the next 26 hours before landing in Chicago. From Chicago we will have a 20 hour train ride and a rental car to take before we arrive back in Oklahoma on Friday. If you think of us over the next couple of days, please pray for our safe travels.

I'm going to go get one last coke before I leave. They make them with real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup, and they taste a lot better here.
