Welcome to Israel

Laleh Haverim finally arrives in Israel on June 20, 2010 after a 14- hour non-stop flight from Los Angeles. Laleh and 44 other young professional Jews start their amazing Israel learning adventure with an organization called Aish Los Angeles (Aish Kodesh) led by Rabi Yitz Jacobs and Dalia Eliav. When our group arrives, the bus takes us to Jerusalem, in the Old City. Right away our group was greeted and welcomed with "the Israel Hug"- a free-style dance off with a "dombak" small hand drum, and singing Israeli songs :-) We oversee the Wailing Wall which is also known as The Western Wall.
