Kever Rachel, Routine Visit

Over the years I've had some very nightmarish visits to Kever Rachel, so near but so far from Jerusalem.

For a number of months, for various reason, I didn't go on the monthly trip. Suffering from summer boredom, I went this past Thursday. First of all, we didn't have to wait near the main road for a soldier to get into the bus. We drove straight to the gate. Other people asked to join us, saying that they had been waiting "an hour" to get in. Then the gate was opened, and we traveled the couple of feet to the main entrance.


It wasn't terribly crowded. I found a comfortable place to sit. I said my prayers and Psalms.

And then we went home.
