Correction!!!!!!

First of all, the post yesterdayabout asking our guide, Claudia, to "stroll," was from Jill, NOT ME! All of you know me better than that!

Today, we were actually able to go into a mosque, something that is normally forbidden to tourists, but Trisha had connections. We had to remove our shoes, wear make-shift skirts that they passed out over our jeans, & cover our heads, but it was totally awesome!

By pure chance, a few of us met an Israeli basketball star. We were over in the Old City & were talking about a sign on the wall that said: Issa's.. my's name, baskeball's my game. This guy heard us talking & it turns out he was Issa--apparently a local b-baller who plays for the Israeli International Team. He asked us where we were from, & when I said Indiana, he wanted to know if I knew Bobby Knight--DUH! Turns out he'd been to Knight's camp at both IU and Texas Tech. Small world!
