The Road to Jerusalem

One bus ride one way, then back the other (live & learn), we finally found our way to the main bus depot in Tel Aviv- inside a "mall". After being searched and asked if we had any cans (or guns it was hard to tell) we finally found stop 605 and the bus to Jerusalem!

We now know why the Bible says that people go "up to  Jerusalem", as the ride was a steady climb toward the Golden City. We successfully shook off our first scamming taxi driver and got a good ride to the Jaffa Gate of the Old City. Whew! No more cars or buses for awhile!
