The Tower of David Museum at the Citadel and a night out in Jerusalem

Last night Monday night we went out to the old City to see the Night Spectacular at the Tower of David which is located in the restored ancient Citadel of the city of Jerusalem.  The permanent exhibition, housed in the guardrooms of the Citadel, tells the fascinating and complex story of the history of Jerusalem over the course of 4000 years, focusing on the central events and their importance.  The Night Spectacular moves from the creation to the eternal city of Jerusalem showing Jerusalem as the inner heart and center of the world.

We spent the evening with Marilyn's friend since she was probably nine years old her husband and their three sons their wives etc.  It was a wonderful evening culminating in dinner at the historic King David Hotel which was build by the British in the 20's - We dined outside overlooking the old city and the ancient walls glowing in the evening light.
