Short trousers (if You enter holy places You need long ones) and flower t-shirts. 6 full packages of Heineken beer, 4 1,5 liter Finlandia vodka bottles, 1 bottle of cola, tanning creme.

Women should definitely cover up as much as possible. If you are revealling bare shoulders in the vicinity of the Wailing Wall, you will be handed a shawl to wear, however it is better to come prepared - this is a religious site after all.
