In the Holy Land...

Daddy is in Israel now on a working trip. While it's a Sunday, the Jewish working week is Sunday to Thursday so it means that after breakfast, Daddy & his colleagues are all going to work... :(

Last night, we were hosted to a dinner at a Fish restaurant. It was amazing the amount of food was available. By the time we worked through the appetisers, we are all pretty full already. :p But then, the main course arrived!

Israel is a pretty young & old country. Modern Israel has only existed for just about 50 years, but the modern Jews claim the history back to biblical times. While the ancient history is interesting, espacially for christians, Daddy is also quite impressed with the history of the modern state over the years & all that they have endured.

Just across the street from Daddy's hotel is a pub which was bombed by terrorists years ago. A monument to the people who died still stand there. In Jerusalem, a Holocaust museum stands to remind us of the atrocities that humans can commit on fellow men. It's sobering but an important lessons for all future generations.
