Boiling Sukkot in Jerusalem

On the Monday we had decided to go to Jerusalem with the boys. Ziv has been there before, but for Gal it was the first time. Normally this time of the year, it is comfortable 25-27 degrees, but this year the summer does not seem to want to give up, and we wandered around Jerusalem in 35 degrees, under a frying sun, among gizillions of people, since it was the Sukkot holidays. This did not have a positive effect on the enthusiasm of the kids, alas, we ended up dragging two whiny kids to the Western Wall, around the Old City and to the famous Mahane Yehuda Market. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, we went home with some nice experiences in the luggage. Now we do not have to bring the boys there for another decade or so... Or?
