Welcome Home to the New Olim (and 304 photos)


Hi Everyone!

Congratulations and welcome home to the 331 new olim that
made aliyah to Israel from North America. The NBN aliyah charter
flight arrived in Israel on Tuesday morning and included 88 children
in 41 families and 172 singles. The youngest oleh in the group is
one and a half months old and the oldest oleh is 75 years old.
A record 125 of the single olim will be joining the IDF.

I took 304 photos of the exciting, historic event and I posted them
online at:
www.jr.co.il/pictures/israel/history/2013/a785.htm
As of today, there are now over 10,000 photos in the
aliyah photo gallery.

I also posted the 304 photos on Facebook for name tagging.
The Facebook album address is:

If you have a Facebook account and you are in the photos or
see someone you know, please feel free to name tag the photos.

May the aliyah from all over of the world grow and bring
more Jews back to their homeland, Eretz Yisrael.

Have a good evening,
Jacob
