Visiting Another's Holy Place
Started our day at the Western Wall. It was very interesting to be at a place that is so importent to others. I guess I felt like I couldn't quit get into the wall itself. But behind it in the courtyard I did resonate with two things. First, a series of six silver stars on a roof top with "Remember" written beyween them in memeory of those lost in the holocaust. And two, the story from our guide about the moroccan section of the old city whose families were kicked out and whose houses were demolished to make the courtyard/plaza we were standing in.
Interesting things to try and together in your mind.
