I have always wanted to travel to Israel but never got the chance to.

Now, I am more enticed with it as I have came across a group of people who just visited the country when I sat beside them in the airport on my way to visit China.

They promised to stay in touch through emails so that they could help me with visiting the place in terms of information that will prove to be really helpful for me.

I've never been to Israel, but have an old lamp to show me the way.....one day. The Pool of Bethesda is mentioned in the Gospel of John.

Emily you were fortunate to sit next to nice people at the airport. Usually people like to sit as far away as possible from their neighbours in such places. Why is that? Just a matter of personal space? Same in the doctor's waiting room. ;D

Personal space varies with culture. A British/Arab conference with people standing talking to each other usually ends up with all the British delegates standing with their backs to the walls and a gentleman from the middle east a foot from his face. ;)
