Jan 5th

Gorgeous blue sky morning in Jerusalem.
The first thing we did was go to the Old City of David which is right beside the Old City of Jerusalem. Here is a cat.
Actually we may have done an overview of the city first. Here is a shot of the Dome of the Rock.
Another City of David cat.
These are a part of the ruins they are excavating at David.

Both Jerusalem and Tel Aviv had a lot of roosters more or less walking around freely. I'm guessing they're all over the country.
The Jaffa Gate where we entered the Old City.
You can see the bullet holes from the Independence War.
Inside the Old City.
The Game of Life. If I tell you the rules, you're either in the game or you're not.
The Western Wall. It was really weird seeing this in real life considering I've gone 26 years just seeing pictures of it.
They're still doing archeological excavations by the plaza in front of the Western Wall.
