Shrine/Kotel

Today I went to the Shrine of the book and the Kotel.

It was a fun and educational day.
We woke got dressed nicely, and drove to the Shrine of the book. We saw an exebition on paintings with no owners and orphanage art stolen by the Nazi's with no owners either. We saw some really nice painting that stare at you, any direction you go, like the one we saw last year in Victoria in the Parlement building of the Queen of England and her son. After that we went to the Shrine of the book. We saw some artifacts that are 100-200 years and more. Then we saw the Dead Sea Scrolls! In the middle of the room were the Dead Sea Scrolls but in picture. I was dissapointed but when you go down the stairs then you have glass covering the REAL DEAD SEA SCROLLS!!!!!!!!!!!! I read some of the words in hebrew and recognised some of the words but not all. After that we left the Shrine and went to see the mini model of Jerusalem. I thought that it would be much more interesting than what it was but oh well. The mini model was just little buildings of Jerusalem, and the Temple, all behind the rope. So it wasn't that great but it was special. I almost fainted from the heat it was boiling and I think it was only 20 degrees but Im not used to the sun so it was really hot! We got into the car and drove to the Kotel. We only had to drive for 10 minuets, and then we were there. We got out of the car and walked to the Wailing Wall. There was at least 4000 people there I have never seen so many people!!!! We got to the section for girls and wrote our prayers. Beleive it or not I didn't really wish for peace! I think I wished for something better but I can't tell. We only stayed there for 20 minuets, and then left. On the way home we stopped for my mom to buy groceries for dinner. She told us she bought the best strawberry's in the world and that we would use them for dessert. We got home and wanted to see the strawberry's but when we opened the bag they weren't there! My mom was so mad that we went back to get the strawberry's came home and made our dinner!

That was my day and I hope you had a great on too! And had a blast selling all your awsome products in the entrupaneur show!!!!

Love Melody.
