Western Wall Camera

View the Kotel (the Western Wall) in Jerusalem live. If you have family in Israel, coordinate the time they will be there, and you may be able to see them live! The camera gives an updated picture every minute. If you want to log in, you can actually control the camera somewhat. With the view initially provided, you will be looking into the men's section of the worship area (aka, you should not be seeing any women. Sorry if you wanted to see your daughter or girlfriend!) Give it a try!
