Addendum…

Under: Palestine, Uncategorized, What I Love @ 11:24 am on Sunday, 01.7.07

I got my vacation approved for this Summer … Why are tickets SO expensive?! To pay this much for only 2 weeks is crazy, but I do more crazy things sometimes anyway…it wouldn’t stop at this…I’m very excited about travelling this year more than any other year because

1) We will be putting our final final final touches on the family house…so we will finally have a place to stay in every time we visit Palestine.

2) I will carry on this project. It went relatively well initially, but the more research I did, the more complicated it got. I apologize to some for not sending an email with more details…I will do so very soon, but I’m finding that taking the stuff with me is going to be nearly impossible. I will however purchase the items from Palestine…by doing so, I will not have to go through this whole very complicated logistics process and more importantly i will be helping - even if by very little - the Palestinian economy…I’ve already mentioned that people generally tend to be very reluctant giving out money…so I will take it on individually.

3) I will get to spend a lot of my time in Jordan with Shaden! Finally she gets to be in Jordan at the same time I’m there. I will give you the exact travel date and time so you can pick me up from the airport :d In fact, I already invited myself over for a few evenings! I bet Shaden, being the sweet person she is, will give up her bed for me… but it’s not necessary because I project that we will be up all night talking and catching up! Don’t forget the list of adventures we will embark on…we will need at least a few days to go to all the places we talked about before. How excited are you? (1 being whatever. 2 being with or without you, it’s all the same. 3 being somewhat excited. 4 being excited. 5 being absolutely thrilled an I cannot wait!)

Sunday is the most boring day of the week!

The weekend is always short!

Thanks queenie… Inshallah you will too:)

it’s on the outskirts of Ramallah! This is one view from one angle of the roof, and this is another view from another angle

You call that expensive!! Imagine what it was for me, and I still had a connection flight TO Chicago! Add to that Extra luggage, since I decided I’m taking one extra bag with me and paying for it both ways…

But Iman, trust me, it’s absolutely worth it, it’s money well spent .. This is exactly why we work and make money to spend it on things that matter to us like this …

Wishing you a safe and happy trip … and inshallah you’ll enjoy it as much as I did. And there’s a remote chance that I too might be there around the same time ;-)

Loved the scenery and view from the house .. Palestine’s landscape is truly unique .. has t all in one place .. and the road to Ramallah as I remember it is filled with fresh chocolate color soil and shiny green trees ..
lets hope that it will be calmer over there by the time you’ll be there .. enjoy it ..

That is too bad. Only 2 weeks. It takes a few days to “get” there. :-)

Danah, it is lovely…Thanks.. I hope so too.

Shaden, yay, sounds great! mashi no English, effective when I see you…

Luai, three weeks is too long of a vacation there :p

Yeah, I enjoyed it … it was fantastic (in case you didn’t know that I’m back ;-))

Now back to the grinder and making money faster than I can spend it.

I decided that I might want to go several times a year instead of one long vacation. What do you think?
