 Old man  watch out for the cars! No don't bump into the tree!
 The cowboy, the queen and the housekeeper!
 Yum Yum!
 Everyone out for a walk!
 Even the guard gets dressed up!
PurimAs we read in the Megilla, Purim is on the 14th for all places that are not walled, and in Shushan and other walled cities, Jerusalem which is one of them, Shushan Purim is held the next day. So everyone in Jerusalem had a 4 day "weekend"  and spread out the Purim fun!

Here are a few of the pictures our roving reporter caught on the cellphone camera!

I don't usually post pictures of churches on this blog, but I have seen this from afar many times.  When you are driving to the Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital, this view keeps popping up so you might get distracted by the view.  You might wonder about the golden dome church and why it is up there? Well this link:  http://www.biblewalks.com/Sites/RussianEinKerem.html   Will tell you all about it. If you want to go to visit, remember that visitors are not allowed inside the church, but the view and the exterior might be enough to justify the trip. Since you have to go into the Hadassah Hosiptal complex, you will have to pay the parking fee for the hospital, so don't be surprised. Have a good trip! Rachael Alice
