Other then that theres no way to pay less then the $250 for hotels?
Any way to get a discount? Do you know of any hotels cheaper that are nice?

try going to the ramada or any of those on that strip (mercaz hair) (i think the jerusalem park) its around 98 a night and even the little house in rechavia is supposed to be cheap

Isn't the Biblical Zoo in J-lem? IIRC the one in Ramat Gan is a "safari".

Do you mean in Mishor adumim? There is one there, straight until the Rami Levi on the left, you turn right instead, then another right. I've been there but never inside iirc.

Is this pool like billiards/snooker or swimming?

An interesting fact about the blind museum "Dialog in the Dark".
In Chulon (Israel) it costs 62 Shek. = Approx. $16
In NYC it costs $40 !!!
In Johannesburg SA it costs approx. [the equivalent of] $5!

Note that they are all branches of the same musuem...

The stream has 3 places to enter it. One is Ein Prat and has an entrance fee. One is off the Alon road after Kfar Adumim and is called something like En Farah. The other is next to Mitzpe Yericho, but I haven't been there yet.

The second one is Ein Mabua? I got high recommendations for it. Is it appropriate for little kids? Do you know if there is likely to be a big crowd there?

I heard that the first place closes at 5, the second at 6.

Thanks!

i just told creditor about it, he said theres a nice place also a drop farther down, also it closes at 4 fromwhat i was told, my neighbor said its gr8 for kids not so much adults, he said it gorgeous and nice and fun. also he said he did eretz birishit which is before it, so this way the kids were all tired out and just relaxed there :-)
