What a day we had yesterday (Day 12). OnEurope, Eurovision Apocalypse and Eurovision Ireland joined forces for a trip to Jerusalem. What a magical city Jerusalem is – and a complete contrast to Tel Aviv it is too!

Before exploring the sites of the Old City, we crossed the road from the train station, for a pilgrimage to the International Convention Centre – the Host Venue for both the 1979 and 1999 Contests. Where else did we visit – let Staggy show you around!

Following our trip to the Holy land, I ventured off to the Eurovision Village to see what it was about and buy the merchandise I wanted. Limited edition “Dare To Dream” Beach Towel anyone? Following on from that, it was a trip to the Press Centre for the Jury Semi Final 2.

On to today and Day 13. A rather quiet day with the exception of a quick interview with Slavko. This can now be seen on the website, as can a video tour of the Press Centre! Enjoy Semi Final 2 tonight and I hope your favourites go through!

Here at Eurovision Ireland we’re not bias, but come on IRELAND!!!
