Timna Park was pretty remarkable – we spent most of the day here after checking out of our hostel. \u00a0It has a great history of copper mining & quite a few remaining hieroglyphs, one a cartouche of Rameses III laying claim to the area. \u00a0It was about 104 degrees.<\/p>\n

We arrived in Jerusalem at about 8PM. \u00a0Our apartment is on a street that is rail & foot traffic only – thank God for WAZE, it got us one block away where we found a parking place. \u00a0Getting in to our place on Shabbot was a small adventure, but eventually we figured it all out & tucked in safely for the night. \u00a0This place is super well-equipped complete with a washing machine and dryer. \u00a0Yay!<\/p>\n
