Now I know you probably looked at this and laughed, but that pales in comparison to the elation I felt when the fully clothed women in burqas bathing in the dead sea gave me what I can only presume was a smile because I couldn&#8217;t see their lips.

After a few hours walking around, I was really happy to glance up and see this window of a church and it&#8217;s subsequent reflection of a mosque. It almost made up for having my note taken out of the wailing wall because I wasn&#8217;t a Jew, not being allowed to see the Dome of the [...]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s the view from the roof of my cave hostel. Even after the hassle of trying to get a room (never stay at the citadel in jersualem) the view almost made up for it. It was particularly haunting at this time of night though because I heard the call to prayer fom the nearby mosque [...]]]></description>

According to the locals, the wailing wall is supposed to be a pretty non-denominational kind of thing. But after leaving my note in wall and then walking away, I couldn&#8217;t help but turn around and see one of the black jews (the orthodoxish ones that wear all black) taking my note out of the wall.

File this under so bizarre, it&#8217;s funny. In case you didn&#8217;t know, everybody who is a citizen of Israel has to serve in the army at some point. Naturally, this creates a pretty large soldier community that you see walking around with semi-automatic killing machines. Most people are pretty used to the sight, but coming [...]]]></description>
