We all thought this bubble was so random in the middle of the Old City :) so of course we had to take a picture. It is a protection for the fountain at night time they had just not taken it down yet.
A bunch of us outside the church of the holy sepulcher at early in the morning. We went to early morning mass here it was amazing!
My roommates and I with our Judaism teacher Mr. Yarden and his two little kids!
At the Seder Passover dinner in the Oasis cafeteria in the Jerusalem Center! (Me, Lisa, and Mackenzie).
Rachel, Me, Hannah, and Brent at the Passover dinner that was held here at the Jerusalem Center!
This Monument has a really cool story from the holocaust. The man in this monument that is holding the children was a non-Jew who had started an orphanage for children in order to give them a good education and help them become great citizens in the world. When the Holocaust came and all of these jewish children were sent to the ghetto's and then eventually the concentration camps this man went with the children even though he was not a jew because he felt it was his duty to be with his students until the end.
At Yad Vashim. These two monuments show the difference between how the Jews reacted to the Holocaust. The art-work on the left is the uprising and the Art on the right is showing the Jews down-trodden and accepting their fate.
At Yad Vashim ( the holocaust museum in Jerusalem). I thought this was a cool monument because it is showing the Jews that tryed to fight for their freedom.
