Jerusalem day 2

Wake up earlier today, breakfast, but still i’m already too late for a city bus tour. For killing time i’m walking around Erek Refaim area (greek colony, german colony) in search of a mailbox for my postcards and doing some sightseeing of the living areas.

„Holyland“, a development project in Jeruslam for which several high ranking politicians were sentenced that week to quite high times in jail for bribery.

The „Tower Of David“, by the Jaffa Gate of the Old CIty.

At noon i managed to catch the city bus, starting at the Old Train Station and drove  out to Yad Vashem. As i had seen a lot of the history of the jewish community in Thessaoniki and its destruction during WW2, and then seeing it here (besides a load of other cities and countries) again, i couldn’t stand it for more than about 1,5hours before bailing out of the museum and the whole area.

After waiting for the citybus to return and driving with it back to the old train station i got my first ice cream of the trip:-)
