Jerusalem

I have to go see what all the fuss is about

I want to pray before the Wailing Wall. I want to walk throughout this city that is home to so many religions and the seat of so much controversy.

I want to see where my Lord is going to come back to get me. I want to see and walk on the streets that Jesus walked on. I dont really care to see were He was crucified, because I think that He wouldn’t like all of the gold, and Jesus is alive so I just want to see where he comes back at!

Go to Israe, go directly to Jerusalem, go directly to the Kotel: have your own holy experience at the holiest place on earth.

I hae not been to Israel since 1979 and 28 years is too long a time. I am hoping we are able to go in 2009.

When I was there (1995) the best falafel in the Middle East was located in Amman Jordan and in a stand just inside Damascus Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem.

I had a great time in a small cafe, eating and drinking local beers.

I visited Jerusalem back in the spring of 1993 on summer break while I was studying law school in London. I flew into Tel Aviv airport early in the morning and then took a bus to Jerusalem. I spent a day walking around the holy city, seeing the wailing wall, the ruins and lots and lots of people.

Go there before they mess it up them Israeli and Arabian/Palestinian crazies that can’t seem interact in peace.
It’s been 20 years since my visit but at least I can say that I’ve been there ;-)

I don’t know… I thought I would feel different but I didn’t, but it still had some interesting places to visit.
