My recent holiday
I have just returned from a week in Israel (my second trip in a year) and had a great time - it was boiling hot there (around 27C most days) and so I had a bit of a shock landing in temperatures of 10C and going down to 3 and 4C at night.
Back to work for me on Monday and less than 2 weeks now before I move to my new home - I am really looking forward to it but I suppose this means I'll be up to my ears in packing boxes for the next fortnight.
I was spoilt on the trip to Israel as I managed to get upgraded to Club World on both outward and inward trips (thanks to sis!) and it was nice to relax in a bit of luxury - it really made the flight go quickly, or was that just the champagne?
When I arrived back, my mum met me in T5 which was an unxpected surprise (but a nice one) and I was very impressed with how modern and stylish T5 actually is as this was my first experience of it - the time to get through luggage and customs was much shorter than usual and the terminal itself has a very luxurious feel and you could easily spend a whole day there, shopping at Harrods and Prada, to name but a few of the high-price shops there. Fabulous !
Anyway, for a slideshow of my Israel photos - please see here :
