Old City, Jerusalem
As the new year breezes in (freezin’ cold that wind is – but Happy New Year!), I thought I’d create a new video of some of the pictures I took last week in the Old City, Jerusalem. It’s a little taster of what the Old City is all about, and yes, in some of the pictures, people are actually wearing coats! Well, it was Christmas Eve, and yes, I even wore my jacket, the wimp that I am…
Most of the pictures are from the 3 must-sees of the Old City, Jerusalem: the Western Wall, the inside of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the bazaars that line the narrow streets of the Old City. Enjoy!
