Yad Vashem and Ben Yehuda

Today was a different kind of touring day. We started with a time of praise with Richard then headed for the Holocaust Memorial at Yad Vashem.

We made a brief stop at the Knesset, home of Israel’s government and took a look at the state symbol-the menorah.

Our second stop for the day was the main market street in Jerusalem, Ben Yehuda St. We had plenty of time for some shopping.

Tomorrow we’ll visit Bethlehem and the Garden Tomb before our farewell dinner in Abu Gosh and departure from Ben-Gurion airport. Looks like it will be a long day.
My final post well likely be from home on Saturday.
