I have recently communicated with Betty Ann Buckley, our ACTS Leader. She is in Israel and has been conducting tours with other groups since the first of the year. She says all is well there. She has given us our final itinerary for the trip, day by day:

first night stay in Jehrico.

Thursday: Day 6 Dead Sea

This is a very exciting schedule. See if you can mark it out on a map before we go. Russell has listed several other places that he remembers as very interesting from his trip 20 years ago. We may be on the lookout for some of them as well.
Countdown to our flight is now just two days!
