Jerusalem Scenes

This is a picture from inside the Jerusalem Light Rail Train, looking at the the Zvill Yeshiva building.  A perfect frame.

Do you remember the dingy, dirty, overcrowded YMCA's of America? Well, it sure has come up in the world since then.  This is a picture of the interior of the Jerusalem YMCA, I turned around and said "Wow!" Snapped this picture for all to see. It looks most impressive in the evening as the sun is setting, so the window is lit. There are lots of events at the YMCA, I mostly hear about classical concerts, it is a perfect venue for Mozart and Hayden, don't you think? Y M C A I'll meet you at the Y M C A!

I was walking home at around 5:00pm, and I was transfixed by the colors of the sunset.  What wonders G-d gives us on a daily basis.  May your life be as beautiful as these pictures. Rachael Alice www.travelinghairsalon.weebly.com

Sunset is a lovely time.  During Elul, we use all our efforts to become better people, by looking back upon our deeds and do better next time,  Just as sunset is the end of the day, and we reflect upon what we have done this day, so Elul is the same for the whole year.  May everyone in Am Yisrael use this time to reflect and correct all the character flaws that we have and do better next Year!

It is the happiest season of the Jewish Year!  Let's take a tour of Jerusalem as she gets ready for Sukkot!  Here are some enterprising young men selling the 4 species, on Givat Shaul Street.  Yoel, in front has sets of the Lulav, Etrog, Haddasim at a good price!  These are Hadassim, and Etrogim.  The two etrogim here have Pitom, that is they are extra special!  Every building has multiple Sukkas!  More Sukkot!   Here is a baby Etrog tree, about 6 Sumonths old.  It will be many years until we can pick its fruit!  Happy Sukkot!   Rachael Alice www.travelinghairsalon.weebly.com 058-750-0608
