This in itself was not so unique, as hundreds of thousands of Jewish families from Israel and from other lands participated each year in the three pilgrimage fesivals of the Hebrew calendar: Pesach, (Passover), Shavuot, and Sukkot, (Tabernacles), and filled Jerusalem in order to be a part of the holiday celebration at the Holy Temple. What makes Shlomo's story remarkable, is that he wrote down all that he saw and experienced in a journal, and when he arrived back home after the week-long Passover festival, he was still so inspired by his adventure, that this very talented boy drew pictures all over the walls of his house in order to illustrate what he had described in his journal.
