The Wailing Wall, the Aroma Espresso Bar, and the Holocaust Museum

It was really amazing to see (and TOUCH) the Wailing Wall.

Enormous


Then we passed by the Arabian market. I wanted to buy so many things!



People selling the donut bread (also mentioned here)


Part of the Lion's Gate


Then we went to Aroma Espresso Bar




Chocolate-orange muffin


Almond croissant


Chocolate milkshake


Coffee and frothy milk


On the way to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum (we were constantly on the go) I spotted some Israeli soldiers. They looked like runway models!


Some trees were dedicated to the memory of certain Holocaust victims by their surviving loved ones 


It was a really sad place :(

We weren't allowed to take pictures in both the Children's Memorial and in the museum. It was a really draining experience, but it makes you bent on never standing by and watching other people suffer. I suggest you all visit the place and remember.  You can also explore the Yad Vashem website here.

"I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

God bless Israel!
