Landing at Ben Gurion Airport

B"H

Landing at Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv can be extremely emotional. Although I haven't left the country for quite a while, these pictures don't encourage me to leave. Not even for a short vacation abroad.

The video below shows the landing of an ELAL plane coming in from Zurich. At the moment, thousands of Jews from all over the world are coming to Israel in order to spend the high holidays in the Holy Land.
"Welcome, welcome", and, sarcasticall speaking, we Israelis hope that you are going to spend lots of money in our country.

To give you a helpful piece of advise:
Don't get cheated in the Arab Quarter in Jerusalem's Old City. Know what you want to buy and don't let yourself getting convinced to buy more hand - made (in Taiwan) souvenirs. Don't even think about booking a trip to the Dead Sea through the Arabs or you may find your wallet completely emptied out.
Take a regular bus or go on an Israeli tour !
