Jerusalem through cats

So there are tons of stray cats in Jerusalem, and we see them a lot in the mornings and evenings, so I thought I would document my way to the dig site via cat pictures...

But these are a couple of scenery pictures in the morning before we get to the cats. It's actually not this bright cause we leave the hotel at 5:00 AM, but the camera makes everything look more bright.




And here is the entrance to Damascus gate, where we enter the old city.


And now, the cats!
 The first ones were right inside the front gate.

And here are some more outside of Mt. Zion Gate...

And I caught the tail end of one running away this afternoon while we toured some of the tunnels.

Another piece of wildlife in Jerusalem is the pigeons that live right outside my window and coo at 3:00 am.
