Took me 17 days to get sick? The fuck?

This was my second day alone in the city. Had big plans about walking along the outside of the old city walls, City of David, Gethsemane. However, I have been getting steadily sicker, and today was all-out diarrhea. Bleh. Sort of bathroom-to-bathroom tour of north side of New City, Rockerfeller museum, down the steep cliff on the East side, Gethsemane, Wall Plaza, Mount excavations (cool!).

Rockerfeller was disappointing- very very old, dated, little documentation, but obviously an impressive collection just not displayed to best advantage. The Mount excavation park area was awesome- from 1st Temple to Crusader levels, and very very possible to leave with a good coherent mental picture of stratigra1phy and changes. Section of restored Cardo, the old sealed up Golden Gates (cool!), bits of the market way that ran along the first temple mount.

Regret the lack of time spent in Gethsemane, but was just too sick.
