Who wouldn't want to go to the "Beauty Saloon"? I know a lot of people who would really enjoy that experience. Also, I'm a little confused since there are books inside...So as you've probably noticed, it's been a few days since I've posted anything. It's not that I haven't wanted to, just that I haven't had ANY time at all! Which is weird, because I didn't go out and see lots of sights. I guess schoolwork is finally catching up with me. I went to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the Knesset, and saw the Dead Sea Scrolls (we weren't allowed to take pictures at the last 2 places though-sorry). The Knesset is the parliament for Israel. It was really cool to see, and there was tons of artwork by Chagall so I enjoyed it. We're leaving for Egypt on Sunday for 8 days, so my next post won't be until...Tuesday? I think it'll probably be around then. Until then, here are some pictures from that past couple of days to tide you over.
This is a picture of what Jerusalem would have looked like during the Second Temple Period.

This was in a cistern underneath the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. It was really cool because it's a huge cavern filled with water and it's really echoey ( I have no idea how to spell that).
Just a picture in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. It's kind of blurry because it's so dimly lit, but I didn't realize it until I got back.

Ashley! It looks like you're having so much fun...I bet it's really cool to actually be there - probably a lot different than you thought. I love the pictures. Looks like you'll have the whole place covered by the time you leave. Have fun!
