Bethlehem


Above is a picture that I took this summer. I climbed up on the base of the barrier wall that extends around the city, and circles in around Rachel's Tomb. Just after I took this picture, I was told to get down by an Israeli solider in the tower to behind this picture. Interestingly, the same spot was captured by National Geographic. Cut and paste to check out this video:

Yes, universally, everyone knows and appreciates the wonder of gas stations. Because we can all relate, and they've come to all look so American too. Cheers & Good Luck, 'VJ'
