Israelis Love to Have Fun..

As I was on my way home from work last week, I passed down Agripas street in Jerusalem. As usual it was crowded, busy, with traffic pile-ups and a lot of frustrated people waiting for the bus. On top of that it had been raining on and off and everyone was soggy.

So what to do in these situations??

There is a well-known group, the majority of which are young people, who have found a way to bring a smile in all types of weather and situations. People call them "Na Nas", because they follow some of the teachings of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov. Do not mistake them for the serious hasidic Breslov groups, because these young people dance to their own beat.

They are known all around the country as they show up in their battered wildly painted vans. Without warning they stop in the middle of the street. Or at traffic lights and get out to dance...People Love It!

Here Is A Short Clip of What I Saw the Other Day~What Fun!

Israel, Jerusalem, Judaism, Zionism, Middle East, Aliyah, Conversion, and everything else that pops up
