Synagogue

$
We noticed men disappear in a synagogue attached to the Wailing Wall. We investigated the entrance where we were welcomed inside and encouraged to be blessed by the Rabbi. The Rabbi visited with us for a few moments, decided on our blessings and sent us on our way. Adam was blessed for good business and I was blessed for a wife.

We thanked the Rabbi, tipped him then explored the rest of the synagogue. Tapestries hung in front of the exposed Wailing Wall. The synagogue resembled the peaceful scene outside where people read scriptures and prayed aloud while others rested in chairs facing the Wailing Wall.
