Photos of Purim in Ma'ale Adumim



 Hi Everyone!

Today, I took 160 Purim photos in Ma'ale Adumim. 

I started with the Purim carnival in Central Park. 

I got to the carnival a bit early, so many of the 

photos are people setting up their areas. 

After the carnival started, I went to the Purim events 

outside the Cultural Center. In the afternoon, 

I took photos in my neighborhood - Mitzpe Nevo.


I posted the photos at:

Shabbat Shalom,
