\u201cFor you have not yet come to the rest and to the inheritance which the Lord your God is giving you.\u201d (Deuteronomy 12:9)<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In Jerusalem, a tourist waited<\/span>
\n<\/span>At a bus-stop on Jaffa Street<\/span>
\n<\/span>When out of the blue, Bus 613 pulled up.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cDo you go to the Museum?\u201d he asked. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>No, to the ocean of Israel.<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cHow much does it cost to get there?\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201c<\/span>Eighteen shekels<\/span><\/i>,\u201d answered the driver.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cI don\u2019t have shekels, I have dollars.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>Sorry, only shekels<\/span><\/i>.\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cHow about pounds, I have pounds, euros, yen.\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201c<\/span>Only shekels<\/span><\/i>,\u201d replied the driver<\/span>
\n<\/span>And added, as he closed the door, <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>It\u2019s a shame, this is the only bus<\/span><\/i>
\n<\/span><\/i>That goes there.<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>The tourist watched<\/span>
\n<\/span>As the bus began to grow wings, <\/span><\/p>\n

Began to rise<\/span>
\n<\/span>And fly<\/span>
\n<\/span>Above the street, above the buildings,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Above the hills of Jerusalem, above the clouds, <\/span><\/p>\n

And flew on<\/span>
\n<\/span>To the other side of the moon,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Where the ocean of Israel ebbs and flows,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Pulled by Jerusalem\u2019s tides.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you next visit Jerusalem,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Be sure to bring<\/span>
\n<\/span>Eighteen shekels<\/span>
\n<\/span>And a bathing-suit.<\/span><\/p>\n","image":{"ID":50569,"id":50569,"title":"dt12-tourism1","filename":"dt12-tourism1.jpg","filesize":0,"url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/dt12-tourism1.jpg","link":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/en\/tourism-in-jerusalem\/dt12-tourism1\/","alt":"","author":"7","description":"","caption":"","name":"dt12-tourism1","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":50394,"date":"2019-03-03
