Hi Everyone! The Jewish festival "Lag Ba'Omer" is Sunday, May 18, 2014. If you are flying over Israel on Saturday night (May 17) and you look down out of your plane, you will see thousands of bonfires dotting the landscape as far as the eye can see. There are various customs and explanations for these celebrations.
I posted on my website 43 links to learn about "Lag Ba'Omer". The address is: http://www.jr.co.il/hotsites/lag-ba-omer.htm Enjoy the bonfires!
