Und mehr

I just thought I'd better post this one too--just found it in Dan's photos he lent me--because it is mighty in formidability and hallowed in memory.

Dome of the rock with Dan Jones, Amjad--whom I mentioned in an early post--Dan King, and John Wiest.
This is a view from the battlements over Damascus Gate (the main, north entrance to the Old City; the battlements were built by Suleyman the Magnificent in 1500 something). It looks down onto the classic market you first start walking into. I figured every student who's ever been there would love to see it. Go ahead, find great filafels on the right; a little further, and it forks: more market stuff on left, Shabban's etc. on the right (and gummies!).
