Almost home

I’m sitting in a very familiar corner of terminal one at Heathrow, waiting for the long flight back home. We flew into London from Israel last night, spent a few hours in the uninspiring but thoroughly reliable Jurys Inn, and we’re now getting ready to hop on the 279 back to LAX.

I fully expect to be back in Pasadena in plenty of time to teach my night class tonight.

I haven’t shaved in over two weeks, haven’t been to the gym in longer, and have eaten more hummus than is decent. But we’ve had a marvelous and fascinating time in the Holy Land, and blogging will indeed return anon.

Even though we’re not home to the States yet, it’s nice to be back in a country where people speak with soft voices and stand obediently in queues. Israel was a bit shocking on both counts.

    There is no such thing as too much hummus. Can’t wait to hear how the trip went.
