After More Than 4 Months, The Shuk Is Still Awesome

This morning, I took a quick trip to the Shuk. A few regular things happened today that I probably will never get used to, in the best way possible:

  • 10 Shekel falafel and a coke. (usually, you're lucky if you can find falafel for between 12-15 NIS and a can of coke for 6-8 NIS)
  • It was a Thursday morning, and nearly everyone was already saying "Shabbat Shalom."
  • When I was shopping in the mini-market, the Israeli folk dance (and popular song) "Pata Pata."
  • And I learned a new word: פנס – panas - meaning "flashlight."
We used said flashlights to walk through Hezekiah's Tunnel, a water tunnel that is thousands of years old. This city has some pretty cool moments.
