Yom Yerushalayim Sameyach!
My strongest memory of Yom Yerushalayim is when I worked in Bonker's Bagels in the Old City.
We were open all night as masses of people, young and old, walked in. Our staff was doubled, no, tripled as people were clamoring for some American soul food.
The store made more money that night than some weeks.
I finally left the store at 5am feeling tired yet excited from the exuberance and joy of the multitudes.
Good times.
Hat-tip to ck from jewlicious via Twitter for reminding me with some twit-pics.
