July 1 -- Video #2

We later in the morning we had our first opportunity to visit The Kotel...the Western Wall. As one might imagine, the chance to visit this place is emotionally overwhelming. It is, as our guide suggested to the group, the closest one might consider possible to approach God. This section of the western retaining wall -- built to support the Temple Mount -- brings out great emotional response from all who visit.

On this particular morning we had the good fortune to watch several groups of very young yeshiva children visiting the Wall with their teachers. Click below to watch a short video of these spirited kids...

Shelley & Ed,

I feel like we're all on the trip with you. Hope the both of you are having a wonderful time. See you at a Yankee game when you come home.

Love Ya & Miss Ya,
Sue & John
