Ben Gurion Airport

Michael slept maybe an hour or on the plane last night. He was in a middle seat. I would have switched my aisle seat with him, but I couldn’t because the man sitting to his left was Jewish and he isn’t allowed to sit next to a female. I think I probably slept about 4–5 hrs. We arrived at the airport almost an hour ahead of schedule, about 4:40 pm. Once we deplaned we had to get our piece of paper (in lieu of a stamp on our passport), get our bags, go through customs and take a COVID test one more time before we headed to our bus.

Arrived at Ben Gurion International Airport late on Thursday. I took the high speed train to Jerusalem, Yitzhak Navon Station. Then took the light rail to Jaffa station and walked to the Jerusalem Tower Hotel.
