In this episode, FAQ is: How do I get from A to B when planning a trip? It sounds so easy, so what’s the big deal?

Today’s Special Series Destination is Jerusalem, Israel, part 1 of three on Israel

Today’s Misstep- Petting a moose. Don’t do it.

Travel Advice: Planning a trip can be half of the fun.

FAQ: How do I get from A to B when planning a trip? It sounds so easy, so what’s the big deal?

Response: It is a big deal if you’ve never done it. You have to know your geography. So, find a map and see the distance, the terrain, and transportation choices. You may be discouraged if you have never been to places A or B. Take it a bit at a time. Don’t try to swallow a watermelon whole. Eat one piece, and then see how you do. My book has 5 steps and takes you to these levels, one at a time, to help you.

Today’s Special three-part destination: Israel (split into three parts, Jerusalem, Dead Sea/ Masada, and Tel Aviv.

This may not be the ideal time to visit Israel. However, I’d like to share some of my travel experiences in the country in the summer of 2023.

The traveler must know that everything shuts down Friday afternoon, as early as 1 pm in Jerusalem. It re-opens on Saturday night. So, if you want to take most public transportation during the Sabbath, you need an alternate plan, using taxis and rental cars.

I bought a Rav-Kav card, which made getting from the airport to my Airbnb easy. I took the Navon light train to Pisgat Ze’ev (zev), part of East Jerusalem.

One of the unusual things in Jerusalem was grocery shopping. To get a cart, you needed to put a coin in the basket slot. During my shopping, one day, the lights went out. It was totally dark. No one seemed to be bothered by that. It took a while for the lights to return, so I wondered if it happened often.

Today’s Misstep- Petting a moose. Don’t do it.

A man has shared a video of his wife approaching a bull moose at a US National Park to pet the animal, ignoring his warnings to keep away.

"This is proof, for the doctors, of what her bodily injuries are from," says the man, who is also standing much too close, as his partner edges closer to the animal. "This is 'what not to do' video, folks."

This was not my misstep, so don’t make it yours. Don’t try to pet a moose. That is a moronic idea.

Today’s Travel Advice- Planning a trip can be half of the fun, says my friend, Nancy Kramer.

  • “I travel not to go anywhere but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.” – Robert Louis Stevenson
