It seems you and I are swapping places in the world for a bit. Well almost, we were in Jerusalem before this. Tel Aviv is top of our list to go to when we get to bid again (in like 10 years - I tell you about it once things are all cleared). I hope you love it. It's a great place for kids. Great food, a great vibe, great travel, terrific culture, etc, etc, <br /><br />I bet your experience will be a bit different than ours because you will serve mainly the Israeli population. There will be interesting hardships associated with that, but we really liked Israelis <i> as well as </i> Palestinians. Living there will do crazy things to whatever feelings you have about the conflict. Good, human-based-compassionate-thinking things, but sometimes difficult-to-hold-two-things-at-once-in-your-brain things. <br /><br />But the north is amazing and beautiful and again, great for families. I can not WAIT to read your blog. We actually have two people from our A-100 going there in a few weeks. Let me know if you'd like me to put you in touch with them. <br /><br />Again, congrats. I haven't even read the post yet I was so excited. I'll do that now. We got around Israel quite a bit so let me know if you have any questions. <br /><br />take care<br /><br />BrookeBrooke S. https://www.blogger.com/profile/12495668558037672507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390371501843551522.post-43720640451761432162011-08-20T20:47:37.347-07:002011-08-20T20:47:37.347-07:00Andy, Congrats on the assignment.
