The Holy Land

So I've been in Jerusalem for almost two weeks now. Once I got here, my computer decided to stop loading my profile in windows so I took that as a sign and accepted the fact that I probably wouldn't blog my adventures. Well, I fixed it, and now goes.

This picture is on top of a tell outside of Jerusalem a little bit, and the modern looking city is a Jewish settlement in the West Bank. Apparently, the Jews are really good at gathering together and pretty much building a city overnight. This is in a sense the way the Jewish people are taking back Palestine.



This pictures is a Muslim mosque just inside the rampart walls of the Old City.

The other two pictures are of the separation wall as it's being built and another through a crack in the Old City Wall.

I'll try to post some more pictures before I go to bed -- tomorrow we head to Egypt for a week.

Love it here, more will follow.
