When the clock strikes midnight, carriages turn into pumpkins and coachmen turn into mice and the dress turns into rags. Israel in July 2007 becomes the ball that is over. And darn - no prince :)

I'm coming home with all of my shoes - the lovely pink Crocs which have not only stood me in good stead, but have helped me fit in (as if I really cared!!) to the current fashion in Israel -- lots of Crocs around - in all colors -- on everyone.

The sherut/shared taxi/shuttle comes at midnight tonight - July 31st and it's all over except for the plane flight home (with a one hour layover in Milan) - though I do have the lovely struggle of four suitcases. I came with two - which were full (what was I thinking?) and I'm coming home with four. Ah, interesting times at the airport.

I'm not sure if I'll use the computer again until I get home, so it will be quiet on the email and blog front.

Thanks for your comments (though they were few - which means you have other things to do that keep up with the minutiae of my trip - which is good) and for the occasional emails.

See you soon - though, don't call me, I'll call you. It will take a little bit for me to get oriented after traveling without a night of sleep and the inevitable jet lag.

Thanks for all you did to make this trip possible.
