Ive done a little research, and discovered that there is some controversy about whether to call it \'western\' or \"wailing\" wall. It seems clear that \'wailing\' might offend some people, which I had no idea of <a id=\"p16\" href=\"http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/wallname.html\"target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" rel="nofollow"> (and according to this link has really only been the case since 1967)</a> My apologies to any who were offended. Thanks Beth...my lack of knowledge is all the more reason why I hope to go back someday. Hi this is Andrew responding.

You seem to have really had a magnificent time and met truly welcoming and wonderful people. My one comment about this particular post. "Wailing Wall" is not correct and somewhat derogatory. It is the Western Wall. I know you would never use a similar term for any other site of religious importance and was surprised to see it being used here where you've only shown respect and tolerance.
