Fun in the sun under a clear blue SkyWatch Friday sky.
Kids whose families can't afford a real swimming pool play in Jerusalem's Lion Fountain..
The lion is the symbol of Jerusalem.
This fountain was a gift from German Chancellor Helmut Kohl to Jerusalem.
The dove of peace perches atop the Tree of Life.
Sprouts on the tree symbolize the branching of three Abrahamic faiths from a single root. .
What fun! Love the fountain and the pretty sky. Happy skywatching!

Rune, haha, very poetic. Now that you mention it, I can see how the fountain might look like an elephant.
