In the simmering cauldron of what is today known as the Middle East lies a sliver of land known as the State of Israel in Western Asia located on the southeastern shore of the Mediterranean and the northern shore of the Red Sea surrounded by Lebanon in the north, Syria to the northeast, Jordan on the east, the Palestinian Territories of the West Bank and Gaza Strip to the east and west respectively , and Egypt to the southwest.
A land regarded by the Jews, Christians and Muslims as the biblical Holy Land, being the birth place of some of the largest religions of the world-Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Bahá’í Faith. Israel’s most sacred sites are in Jerusalem. Within its Old City, the Temple Mount complex includes the Dome of the Rock shrine, the historic Western Wall, Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
An agnostic, visiting these sights and walking the narrow cobbled winding sometimes steep alleys I had a deeply profound stirring feeling that I trod on the very ground walked by a holy Messiah. But outside this there is a modern, pulsating and thriving populace. A proud people who despite the odds of being surrounded by hostility, harsh climate have turned a barren desert into a flourishing, prosperous country.
Our eclectic, irrepressible band of WOW women found plenty to create memorable moments and pleasures to indulge in- the most gratifying being shopping!!!!! We even managed a bridge foursome on a couple of quiet evenings relaxing in the hotel or just enjoying happy hour which was a good thing because there was nowhere to go in the evening in Jerusalem after a physically challenging sightseeing day. We let our hair down in Tel Aviv. Our hotel was on the shore with a separate outside cafe for breakfast where we started our day on the deck sharing tit bits with sparrows. On our first evening we discovered a small cafe with a live jazz quartet. The next night we found a sea side cafe to dine in before that we went sailing to catch the sunset. On our last night together for the pink evening with yummy food and wine we danced to the pulsating beat of Jai Ho!!!! The last afternoon before we caught our flights home some of us were at Highland Bay, a seaside cafe with a drink, music playing , a breeze blowing watching swimmers, kite surfers, sailboats go by bidding a final adieu to Israel.

“Me: Mom do you want to see the Pyramids? - Le mom: Yes, why not” 🙋
A spur of the moment decision to check off one of the 8 wonders of the world, that’s how I embarked on this mother daughter journey along with 16 other women from different walks of life. The trepidations that I had on going on an all women trip proved to be unfounded to say the least!
We started the trip as 18 different individuals from different walks of life, we ended up walking away as a group of friends who learnt a lot from each other. Thank you WOW for making my first international trip with mom such a huge success!

It was an absolute pleasure traveling on the WOW tour to Egypt. WOW Buddy Kanika did an excellent job coordinating the trip, giving clear instructions and smoothing all rough edges - all with the prettiest smile on her face. Thank you for making the trip memorable!
