Travelling home

Thinking of our Palestinian friends travelling home today. If we went to see them, we'd think it was quite far - travel early to the airport, wait for ages, plane for 5 hours, travel to Abu Dis. But our Palestinian friends can't fly directly to Palestine. They have to travel across the 'bridge' between Jordan and Palestine where they have to go through an Israeli border control because it is under Israeli occupation. Their plane will arrive too late for them to be able to go back home straight away, which means a night in a hotel in Amman. And this time, there are likely to be hold-ups... crowds of people going home for Ramadan, and the Israelis putting limitations on the numbers allowed through.... HOPING that they have an easy journey back.
