PlayStation 3 and Herzl
Jen and I were at Blockbuster yesterday, picking up another DVD for Band of Brothers and I saw that there was a PlayStation 3 for sale for the whopping price of NIS 4040 - that's $962! I looked on Amazon.com and discovered that the PS3 is for sale there for a mere $599. I guess if someone really wants their PS3 now, they'll pay the NIS 4040 for it.
Jen's sick so we didn't tour today - we even had reservations for the Palmach museum in Tel Aviv this morning.
Yesterday afternoon we went to Mt. Hertzl, Israel's main military cemetery. We thought we could go to the Herzl Museum there but one needs reservations so all we could do was walk around the memorials. However, there was the rehearsal and setup for a large military ceremony going on so we couldn't access the entire site. We did get to see Theodor Herzl's grave.

Also at Mt. Herzl is a very large memorial to those killed by terrorism. I was struck by how many names appear after the year 2000...
