What I thought was the continuation of the festivities associated with the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Jewish state turned out to be a celebration of the city instead. Jerusalem Day attracted thousands of the cities residents to an open air concert beneath the shadows of the Western Wall. Among the milling crowds were circles of dancing men who seemed to come straight out of the film The Fiddler on the Roof. It goes without saying that it was quite a party.
