DAY 1: LET'S GO TO ISRAEL! July 2, 2017
Storyteller of the day: Dubie Ellis
On July 2, 2017, Diller Toronto Cohort 5 left (slightly delayed) to Israel. We excitedly gathered in Terminal 1 and checked in, collected our brand new diller hats and shorts, said bye to our parents and walked through security. As a result of the 1 hour delay, we had some free time so people spent time playing on the iPads, grabbing a bite to eat, and quickly getting last minute Tim Hortons before saying goodbye to our beloved Canadian coffee shop for 3 weeks. Once at the gate, we gathered together to listen to some facts about Israel and going over logistics. Something interesting that you won't see flying anywhere else is that people began to pray mincha (the afternoon prayer) in the gate. At 6:00 PM, we took off and began ISS 2017.
