Israel: Yom Kippur, Tel Aviv Style!

Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Israel, Religion

Yael went to the Kol Nidre [1] service last night with some friends, but left after about an hour. It was so not happening. In New York, London, and anywhere else she've been to Yom Kippur [2] services and the places were packed to the gills. This beit-knesset was one of many big ones they've got in Tel Aviv. It was absolutely not filled to the gills last night. Outside on the streets though, it was fun. It was really really fun. And it was inspirational, she said [3].
