Last Christmas vacation we made a last minute trip to Israel and I am glad we made this trip !
The weather was surprisingly awesome...much warmer than Cyprus! Infact we had to discard all the woolen wear we carried and stick to T-shirts... atleast during the day time :)
The first memory of my Israel trip is the visit to the old city of Jerusalem ..... a city unique in itself...for its religion and tradition, history and theology, holy places and houses of worship!
View of the "Western Wall" and "Dome of the Rock"
Station 9
Western wall...also called the Wailing wall ...visited by millions of worshipers
It was an amazing experience walking through the old city....the roof top view, the narrow twisted streets, the local markets, the religious people, their attire....I could go on :)
If you are planning to visit the holy city, I would recommend you take the free tour organised by the Sandeman's.
However, if you are travelling with an infant and taking this tour, better not take the stroller. You need to climb a lot of stairs that you may end up carrying both the kid and the stroller :(
More on my Israel trip in the coming posts.
