I had thought when I made aliyah that I would constantly be telling people "I'm an olah chadasha!" but I actually find myself saying it very rarely. I'm immediately accepted as Israeli by Israelis. It's really nice. When I do tell people I just made aliyah, the reaction is generally rather nonchalant. I guess in a way, most people here are an "oleh" one way or another!
It's customary to eat a lot of meat on Israel's independence day. That evening I reunited with old close friends for a mouth-watering hamburger at the famous "Moses" burgers in tel aviv.
