Israel is 6 hours ahead of Eastern time. So you're 9 hours ahead of me. Okay, I'll be rooting for you in my sleep at 5am on Friday!

Love your blog! I am getting sucked into the excitement of the vicarious participation. Will you look for the other Americans that I know: Emily Levine and Noel Wan? How are they looking? Nervous? Tired? Pumped up? How long does it take you to adjust to the time change?
