With negligible sleep we are still able to muster smiles having arrived in Israel. It’s an amazing place, mixing 3 major world religions, whacky religious tourism, and whatever “wifi Jesus” is. Today we went to Bethlehem, and the political climate is pretty obvious, if you stop to read the sign. Note that the sign telling Israelis that’s it’s illegal and dangerous to enter here is a sign posted BY the Israelis. Finally you can see our awesome hosts helping us understand the lunch food.
