Lovely Weeds On The Old City Jerusalem Walls
During our 11 night stay in the Old City of Jerusalem, one of my favorite sites was the Ramparts Walk, NOT TO BE MISSED! And of course, as a lover of things botanical, I just had to photograph some of the weeds growing on the ancient walls. And guess what, my daughter (who had to speed ahead in order to catch a bus back up North and bring the rest of our Passover food from the freezer at home as we unexpectedly decided to stay in Jerusalem) took the very same picture of the very same weed. Such a proud parent moment! This weed looks very similar to a snap dragon, and likely is in the same famliy. Enjoy, and don’t forget to keep your eyes open for weeds growing in unexpected places where ever you go!
Wouldn’t this be a great subject for a watercolor painting?
What an amazing view this guy has, right? Life as a weed in Jerusalem might not be so bad!
