My traveling companion from Detroit to Frankfurt was my daughter who was on her way to Ethiopia for a year of research after college. I felt like the dad of a young school girl walking her half way to school on the first day, pointing her in the right direction and watching her make her way into a new adventure. She is a child of great sweetness.
Then I went to the special security gate designed for the Tel Aviv flight. When they announced the order of boarding, families with young children followed by first class and so on, everyone simply got up, regardless of special status, and pushed toward the gate.
Then we had an incident when a passenger went to the toilet, while we were moving down the runway for takeoff.
It feels like home. The Israel adventure begins.
[Just landed. OK, I was a bit nervous.]
