Day 19 - Last day in Israel
... created as replicas of synagogues around the world. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about Jewish traditions and how they have been practiced though time and around the world. Galleries leading off this section included fine art and modern art from a huge variety of well know artists. We particularly enjoyed a Rembrant of St Peter imprisoned and various Picassos. The gallery is enormous and after three hours of wandering around we had ...
Family and the High Holidays
... a day which considering the small area is a lot of traffic. He was terrific with kids. Sam asked a question about what type of stone they used in Jaffa gate and he embarrassed us by giving us his personal sunscreen because we had forgotten to apply before we left.
Yaacov took us by the Church of the Holt Scepter where Jesus was laid to rest and then was resurrected. The history in this place in and of itself is absolutely dizzying. Muslims ...
Horses and lice
... had the chance to ride horses. The girls took a lesson 2 days, and Ben went on 2 trail rides - once with Josh and once with me. I was relieved to see that they required their riders to wear riding helmets (don't plan on going helmetless again after Brugges), but was concerned about the whole lice issue.

TravelPod Member ReviewsLegacy Hotel Jerusalem
Just came back from a 6-night stay. Hotel facilities are very nice, breakfast good and location fantastic. Just be aware walls are thin and you can hear everything in the hall and in rooms next to you. Could also hear the bar outside (the hotel bar) blasting music. Staff were very responsive to this and managed the noise well but just didn't like having to call the front desk 1-2 times a day to manage some noise issue. Besides that we enjoyed our stay.
