Shabaat Shalom!

During our Sabbath afternoon, a few of us decided to pay a visit to the Western Wall and the Garden Tomb. It was a beautiful day and we met some really interesting people along the way.
Here are Mandi, Chris and I at the Western Wall, right before I got in trouble for having a camera out :(...didn't know about that rule! Before this, we went up and watched the people studying the Torah and praying. It's really interesting to see the dedication of the Orthodox Jews. They are a people of such great faith in their practices.In the Garden Tomb, squishing around with 10 other tourists in a square yard of space. They were really small Chinese people though, so it was ok.
Outside the Garden Tomb.
Mandi, me and Chris...the bridge was darling, so we decided to be, too :). This is part of the Garden Tomb site and it is so beautiful there.
Still on the bridge, we convinced a random British guy to take our picture.
