Images and Words: A visit to Israel.

From May 18th to May 29th, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Israel as part of an program called Taglit-Birthright. Over these 11-ish days (of which 2 were really eaten up by an airplane), I visited 12 cities, spent 5 days with Israeli soldiers, ate infinity shawarmas, and shot 878 photos (after removing excessive duplicates, it drops down to about 580). Over the four posts that comprise my travelogue will be thoughts, memories, and mostly pictures from my visit; although I am no professional writer, with luck I'll be able to convey *some* of the experience! I hope that you all enjoy reading these posts as much as I enjoyed assembling them.
