Here are some new pictures for your enjoyment. I'm hoping to have tons more after I go to the Old City tomorrow afternoon.

The view from the window in my room. Although it's not the Old City, it's also not a brick wall.

Here's some kessef (money). Funny story. I spent my first in Jerusalem without any shekels. I couldn't find anywhere to change my money over and the ATM wouldn't take my card. Luckily the mall we went to had a place to change money over and I ended up spending a fortune calling my bank back in the US to tell them that my card was being used overseas. All that to say that I know have access to money while I'm over here.

Now for a few pictures of the apartment. Hopefully you can get an idea of what it's like.

The meetbach (kitchen)

The hedar sha-li (my room). You'll have to PhotoMerge these together in your mind.

That's all I have for now. More to come later. Just a side note, foreign outlets are such a pain. I foolishly plugged my alarm clock into and adaptor and then the wall and in about five minutes is over heated and was dead. Needless to say I learned from that experience and bought an Israeli alarm clock.

Take Care.
