Im known for my crude jokes and never ending wine consumption, but Tuesday I flew to NY, partook in 10 courses of elksanity, 15 wines and Wednesday headed to the Met for a exhibition on Jerusalem.
The highlight was seeing the Rambam's actual drawings of the beit hamikdash, its in a big book I assume its Beis Habechira? Also letter by yehuda halevi...The worms machzor, Catalan tanach ad others...
Deff worth the trip, ends jan 8, there is also a photograph exhibit elsewhere in the met of auguste salzmann in the holy land like 1850's
