This week I'm in Israel. As a result this is going to be a working travel-blog. I'm accompanied on my trip by my assistant ladybug. The toy bug in these pictures is my accompaniment sent by my son Garrett. Garrett wanted me to take him with me (he chose ladybug specifically). Since G was unable to come with me he gets to see Ladybug in all sorts of places to see that we are safe and having a good time. Below are pictures of me with ladybug at the aquaduct at Caesarea and Ladybug on Mt. Carmel overlooking the vally of Jezreel (Armageddon).

Well that's it for now. More to follow.
