A Sweet Shabbos
Taken Jan 14 at a candy store in the shook in Jersusalem
This photo is Israel through my eyes because I spent just as much time taking in the packaging, food, etc of another country as I did the special places we saw everyday. For me, it was interesting to see how something as simple as candy is different in Israel compared to the United States. On my way out, the clerk at this candy store told me to have a good Shabbos. This didn’t seem unusual at the time, but after I thinking about it later, I realized how special it was that I was in the only place in the world where saying that to customers on a Friday afternoon is common.
