In transit...

I'm not usually one to complain about the high level of security measures airports are taking nowadays - I fully appreciate their efforts and thoroughness (i suppose) in their checks... however, I now LOATHE Heathrow's security 'precuations' (which most of their 'random' checks are a load of rubbish anyway) because they are just time wasters for both the personnel and the passenger. I can't tell you how many articles I've read in the wake of the thwarted terrorist attacks comparing Israel's security techniques of profiling compared to the random ass plucking out of who knows where and, oh, do you mind taking off your shoes as well sir, technique of other Western airports. Mmm, so random I get checked EVERY time.

Anyway, enough ranting about that. So, to be honest, I didn't really write about anything on my last post. And, I haven't really written about anything during my time spent here in Israel. But that doesn't mean that I haven't been having the most wonderful time. Actually, the lack of writing means that I don't really have much to whine about. For most of my time I spent in Midrasha, and I suppose writing about that would be like writing about the same old stuff that goes on in Melbourne. And, as any writer must question when putting their thoughts out there -who cares??
I made some amazing friends from both the States and Canada - making me even more excited to try and get there as soon as possible. I know, sad isn't it. I haven't even finished one trip and already I'm planning to go on another. But that's just me dreaming. Ha. To be in Israel in the summertime is absolutely divine. Oh my gosh. Heaven. So many people strolling the streets late at night, the beaches are packed, the seawater is warm enough for your toes... The last couple weeks I spent visiting family and friends in the north and getting my stuff ready for India.. Well here I come. this is running out (the net) and i used my last pound. I'll do a catch up from a more afforabel computer in Hodu. Wish me luck! xxx
