Many people put notes in the cracks of the Western Wall. The little slips of paper contain written prayers to God. Over a million notes are placed there each year. The notes are collected twice a year and buried on the nearby Mount of Olives.
Maddux had drawn a little picture of the world in the beginning of the trip. I stuck it in my backpack and always carried it around with me. We decided to make a wish for peace, love and fun and hope for the best!
