On Tuesday morning, August 4, 2009, I was at Ben-Gurion airport to
greet the new olim that made aliyah from North America to Israel.

There were 238 olim on the flight including 63 singles
(55 joining the IDF) and 36 families with 113 children.

The youngest oleh in the group is 3 months old and the
oldest oleh is 75 years old. The flight also included 4 dogs and
3 cats.

I took 322 pictures of the exciting event and I posted them online at:

I also posted the 322 pictures on Facebook for name tagging.
There are two sets of pictures and they are both located in my
Facebook photo section at:

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

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

Enjoy the pictures and have a good day,
Jacob
