Yes, it is true. I flew out of the States on Thursday of last week (the 23rd of August) and have been enjoying my time in Israel thus far. For those who don't know, I'm doing a semester abroad. So I will be away until December. So you can tune in on my Israel blog -www.streamsofthedesert.blogspot.com - or you can just wait around here until I post. :P Your choice.
Shalom!
