Israel Day 4 of Week 2

Spent the day with my mother's parents in Jerusalem. Didn't get back home until after mid night as the result of the long and memorable day. My grandparents are pictured in front of the reconstruction of The Israel Museum..

a story
Before I left for Jerusalem, sirens blared throughout the entire country. I'm not sure how often it happens but it's like a fire alarm only for a national threat so families at home, students in school, people at work are all supposed to go to their bomb shelter (most homes in Israel have one). It's just part of life here. Most people don't take it seriously. I was home alone finishing breakfast and didn't do anything.
