Just got off a 12 hour flight, when I wake up I may post more pics. I can barely see straight but at least I got my priorities straight. :)

So it was pretty sweet? I've always wanted to go to Jerusalem...


Did you go to any historic sites? Cool to see the soldiers at the wall praying...with M16s...

Yeah, it was a good time. Was not my first time there, I used to live in Jerusalem so I've pretty much know the city and the historic sites.

i can honestly say that Jerusalem is one place i have absolutely no desire to go to. I suppose if you're jewish, you're invested in that part of the world... i just don't wanna get blown up

I'm not Jewish and I really want to visit there at least once in my life. I suspect I am actually taking a bigger risk driving through PG County Maryland or Washington DC than I would be walking around Jerusalem.

You're probably right. You just have to know which areas to go to and which ones to be more careful in. You just have to be aware of your surroundings.

It was awesome. I met him later on Ben Yehuda, nice guy, laid back, chilled out, down to earth.

Unloaded M16s, to be exact. Kinda weird.

Why should they be loaded?

These soldiers are not in charge of security there, they are simply visitors.
