Morning

 

 

6:15 Olive Terminal
 
Two lanes are open, a line of about 10 people in each, a short wait of a few minutes.
We signed up a man who wishes to be released from "refusal" with the devoted help of Silvia.
 
7:00 Wadi Nar
 
A pack of barking dogs greets us -- scary and unpleasant.
At the checkpoint the soldiers are busy making toast and eating.  Vehicles go past without benefit of a look in their direction.
 
7:20 Az-Za'ayyem
 
Passengers disembarking from buses join the line inside the barbed-wire corridor.  A soldier and a guard get on the bus, take a quick look and descend.  The passengers show their documents to the soldier, he glances, and they return to the bus.  A routine of free passage (for those armed with the necessary papers).
