Jerusalem in Snow!

Ooooooh, I looked out the window and what did I see? Snow in Jerusalem, how can it be??
It rarely snows in Jerusalem and two weeks ago we had the biggest snowstorm in 21 years!  20 cm of snow and the whole city shut down, no school, no work, no buses.  It was my first ever snow day!

View from out my window

A week later, Miriam, Aaron, Moshe, and I drove up north for a day to see the snow and waterfalls from the all the excess water.
