I'll never forget my first visit to Israel. My memories go back to Heathrow airport, as the announcement calling for those with wheel chairs and young children to start boarding the plane, everybody stood up and rushed towards the gate. When we arrived in Israel and stood in line to get a trolley, every one over the age of 50 told me a buba meisa (story) of their medical condition, and that they must pass in front of me in the queue or they would DIE!! The sudden heat and humidity hit me as we left the terminal I knew I had arrived. I love Israel, and since my first visit I have made it my home, but there can be no doubt, walking Dizengoff is a far cry from experiencing Oxford Street in London. A lot has changed here, but the felafal and humous still remains the best in the world. The sabra is still a sabra, for the country has so much to cope with, that Israel children grow up very quickly. It is this demand to experience life and yet to always feel the dangers lurking not so far away, to be part of a historical land, and yet to be part of the present day world, that makes this county and its people very special. I am sure, for whatever reasons, good or bad, that nobody ever forgets their experience, visiting Israel.
