So I’ve finally had time in front of a computer to write to my blog here. To answer one question, I’m here packing a Nikon D40 with the following lenses: 24-120VR 3.5-5.6, 18-55 3.5-5.6, 50 1.8, 35 2.0, and 105 2.5. Overkill I knjow, but the results have been great.

So it’s been a blast so far. I’m here with my friend Kevin. We’re staying in Jerusalm, but travelling a ton. We spent about 45 minutes in Tel Aviv before heading to Eilat ion the south so we could cross over into Jordan! We visited Petra, made famous in the most recent Indiana Jones film. Then satyed in a bedouin tent and had a jeep tour of the desert and mountains down there.

In Hod Hasharon now (I went to high school here for 2 months) and heading to Netanya in a few minutes. Those who know Israeli geography can attest to my being CRAZY for going to all these places in a week. Oh Well. Gotta run. See you all soon. More later.
