This is the date that Israel gained its independence. The year I was there was the 51st anniversary. It was unbelievable to spend time with people who had gained their independence so recently. People dance and drink well into the night. A large stage was set up with a DJ who played music and people went from bar to restaurant celebrating. It is a great experience and made me appreciate what I had.
