I was wandering through a cemetary there and found a Methodist section, a Muslim section, and a Jewish section. Huh?<br /><br />Turns out there was a gold rush in Australia around the same time as ours in the US. To get through the outback, they imported camels, and when you import camels, you also have to import Algerian camel drivers, hence the Muslim section of the cemetary. As for the Jews, well, they did what Yidden have done from time immemorial: they were merchants, buying and selling to supply the populace with what they needed.HSBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12168659998149380814noreply@blogger.com
