Jerusalem – AIP and Supreme Court

Today we traveled to American Independence Park – the JNF of America’s Park in Jerusalem and met with Avinoam Binder, from KKL and JNF. He explained the role of the Park and the various JNF projects including the outstanding Bar Mitzvah Wall. We all walked around the area and recognized some of the donors from throughout the years. On to the magnificent Supreme Court for a tour. What a structure – not only for what it stands for, but for how it was designed and constructed. Our guide took us to several of the court rooms. The afternoon was spent in Yad Vashem. What can one say about this place?
