If you're ever in the neighborhood, stop on by Jerusalem's Jewish Quarter on a Friday morning.
Pop into a local bakery and buy a loaf of Shabbat bread (Challah Bread/braided egg bread) or three. (They're only available on Friday mornings.)
And then I dare you to ignore the procession of of happy families, photographers, videographers and musicians dancing through the streets, celebrating Bar Mitzvah after Bar Mitzvah!
I dare you to try not to join in, and to try not to contribute a congratulatory smile to the lucky youth's celebration day!
This Rabbi was my favorite part of the day. He was so genuinely full of joy!
Aaaaannnnnd.... Here's a video... I rarely shoot video for anything but work (because I do it too much at work...), and I apologize for the shakiness/out-of-focus images. Canon cameras shoot beautiful video as long as you're still/fixed on a tripod... Steadycam shots are not so much their forte. But that's all beside the point because the (every day if you're Israeli) sights and sounds of these videos are kind of, well, amazing. Que Sera.
