Hopefully we will be there early (that is really up in the air as we will be traveling from central NJ during rush hour). We would really like to meet you at the airport and we will introduce you to some of the people we have met that will be on the flight as well. Also, feel free to check out my wife's blog for another Aliyah perspective: http://www.samanthasjewishjourney.blogspot.com/ <br /><br />See you soon!<br /><br />SeanSean M.

We have an apartment in Nachlaot waiting for us when we get there. Nothing much but its a place to land and its walking distance to everything. Now we just have to finish getting everything done here before we go. We should all get together once we arrive. <br /><br />@Alia Thank you. You never know. Maybe it will all come together for you in the future. Remember, there's no place like home!Sean M.
