Jerusalem highlights

This is probably as close to real-time blogging as I am going to get. I've edited the highlights from our past three days in Jerusalem.

Close up of the Old Jerusalem from the ramparts of the city wall. Check out all those satellite dishes on the roof. Everywhere else a place like this would have been long converted to an open-air museum, but this continues to be an actual living city.
