Today was a veritable whirlwind, and very eventful, though with the temperature what it was, it would have been nice to have an ACTUAL whirlwind! Our last host mother described the weather in Israel as hot, hotter, and hottest. Today was on the "hotter" side of things, with temperatures soaring well into the 90s as we went on our excursion through the Old City of Jerusalem.
We saw everything there is to see: the bazaar, the Tomple Mount, the Dome of the Rock, the Wailing Wall, Via Dolorosa, Church of the Holy Sepulcher... everything. Not sure what else there is to say, except it was an amazing and exhausting day.
I will do a larger update tomorrow, but tonight I am so so tired and we have another long day tomorrow. Keep checking later tonight, as I may have time tomorrow morning to post some more details and maybe even pictures!
