My latest road trip started out in Memphis and shortly after landing I was greeted by two surprises: a rental mini-van instead of a car and a rain storm that didn't want to stop.

After a couple of delays and some maneuvering around the hurricane that's making it's way up the east coast, we landed in Ben Gurion last night just in time to grab a small dinner and go to sleep.

One of my friends from Israel brought me a bag of Bamba from the Google office in Haifa.

Free time has been hard to come by lately and when I get a chance I try to go out and shoot, but that only creates another time consuming task.
