Day - 18 - 50,000

Today was a free day so we just walked around the old city and finished up any shopping we had left.


Little did we know that it was National Jerusalem Day.


The Jews had many celebrations and parades that all met at the Western Wall. 50,000 Jews in all.


There were many fights between Jew and Muslim, and about 47 were arrested, and numerous injured. 


We managed to sneak to a place where we could see everything going on. We snapped a couple pictures before we were thrown out, rather we ran out before they could throw us out. 


I guess your not supposed to have girls in a Jewish study area. Signs would have been nice...
