I got a ticket to ride!

Ok...so I have a funny story to post later about the healing of my computer...which didn't last for very long. I was going to write about it when it happened, but after discovering the problem isn't entirely fixed and I can't really use my computer...I was too upset to bother. But, let me tell you...you should all be looking forward to hearing about it. [I'm not sure if Cameron or Jessica or maybe even Stephanie have written about it yet] It may be hard to picture, but it was great.

In other news, which I'm sure you've all heard about by now...Tiberias was hit Saturday and so we [as students, along with a couple adult volunteers] were sent to a youth hostel in Jerusalem. Which to say in the least has made a very chaotic and hectic last day and a half or so. We were going to tour around Jerusalem, but none of the students were fond of that. So here I sit in the airport. [more details will follow when I can use my own computer and am not using one being passed among the group]

But, thanks to traveller's insurance...I HAVE A TICKET! That's right, my dad just sent me an email saying that I'm on the 11:55pm flight to Newark, then to Minneapolis, to Hibbing. Around 2:30pm tomorrow I will be in Hibbing. Exciting, eh? [Yes, I still miss them Canadians...but who could blame me?]

Speaking of missing people...that reminds me, I'm gonna miss a lot of the people that we had to leave so quickly from the dig. 4 of the people I didn't even get to know because they got there and a couple hours later we were out of there.

But...I need to pass the computer on, and go and find Rhoda to tell her that my parents got me a ticket for tonight. [insert happy dance here]
