We leave for Israel in less than 2 weeks!

We are departing for Israel on July 30th out of JFK, to arrive in Tel Aviv the morning of July 31st. We will then travel to Jerusalem and stay in temporary housing for a few days. Meanwhile, we plan to enroll in the Beit Ha'am ulpan (Hebrew classes) beginning August 1st and to look for an apartment near Pardes (where we will be studying for the year, beginning on September 4th).

If you're in Chicago, feel free to stop by our "going away" BBQ on Sunday, July 23rd - we will be hanging out from 12-3pm on the lakefront, just south of the Waveland Golf Course (off Recreation Drive) - hope to see you there!!
