Well, we just arrived (safely) home from the incredible Enloe 12-Day Medical Holy Land Tour! 13 hours in the air can get a bit tiring but I can say with confidence that it was the best trip to Israel that we've ever had! That's due in large part to the wonderful, flexible, and fun-loving group of people that we had the pleasure of touring with in the Holy Land!
We'll all miss looking for Todd Squires when it was time to go or hanging out with him late at night in the street markets of Jerusalem. We'll also miss the quick-witted jokes and superior chess skills of Scott Dauwalder. Even more so, we'll miss our group of energetic, adventurous, and classy ladies! Tonia Braemer, Christine Salas, and Erika Salas were always ready with great conversations and bright and happy smiles (or laughter if the jokes were any good)!
Of course, one of the biggest reasons our tour was so great was due to the tireless efforts of our tour guide, Tal Magged. She was amazing, energetic, and very knowledgable. In fact, she could quite possibly be the best tour guide in all of Israel and Palestine (and we really mean that)! It also helps to have a great bus driver who can navigate the crazy, non-sensical traffic of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Nazareth. We are forever indebted to you Mohammad!
Thanks again to everyone that came on this tour! From the Dead Sea, to the Sea of Galilee, and the Mediterranean Sea, this trip was truly life changing. We can't wait to do it again next year with even better places to visit (how does scuba diving in the Red Sea sound?). Thanks to everyone who came for truly making this a trip of a lifetime! We hope you had fun and that you'll join us again next year in the first week of November for another unforgettable adventure!
