We have arrived!

After about 24 hours of traveling, we have finally reached our hotel and it feels amazing to sleep in an actual bed and have a good meal. From the time we left GVSU to flying into Israel, our travels were smooth and easy going. Many of us had interesting experiences on the 10-hour plane ride including no sleep, exploding water bottles, hours of movies, and interesting people to converse with. Overall, it was a good flight :)

The bus ride to our Hotel for the night was gorgeous viewing the beautiful landscape and rolling hills full of vegetation. When we arrived at our hotel, we were all pleasantly surprised at how nice the hotel looked and how awesome the food tasted at dinner.

To finish out the night, a handful of us found a dimly lit hall and had a great time worshiping our God with our voices and an acoustic guitar.

Tomorrow morning will come early at 6:00 AM but we are so eager to experience everything the Holy Lands have to offer.
