To the Wall and Beyond

On our way to the Wall, we stopped by Ophel where ruins from the Byzantine and Crusader period are. Some, including the stairs which led up to the temple of Jesus' time. Again we walked up those stairs, which Jesus himself probably walked on!

Some observations from the Wall:
1. There was a young man blowing a shofar real loud.
2. There was a guy dressed up depicting King David.
3. A person calling from the Minnerett.
4. A bunch of Orthodox young men dancing around in a circle shouting, "mesheach!" (Messiah) With the death if Rabbi Schnersen the Jerusalem Post had as its secondary headline: No Obvious Successor In Sight"
