Wailing Wall Bar Mitzvah

While at the "Wailing Wall" we heard a loud commotion as a large crowd approached from a distance. When we saw a teenage boy being carried on a man's shoulders in the crowd, we realized that we were witnessing a Bar Mitzvah. This is a "coming of age" party that is given for every Jewish boy when he gets to be 13 years old.  It was quite an interesting an unusual experience!
