But ONLY from her car window! Agreed, it’s not much of a Diary - but it’s just another in a long series of “Not Ready For Prime Time” Palin moments not to share.
Sarah Palin Aborts Visit to Bethlehem
Bethlehem was supposed to be her first stop of the day, according to a leaked copy of her schedule. But, after an uneventful drive from her hotel in nearby Jerusalem, her car stopped just short of the main Israeli military checkpoint outside Bethlehem, a Palestinian city in the West Bank, appeared to hesitate and then performed a U-turn.
Israeli military officials declined to comment on why Mrs. Palin may have turned back, but the country's defense ministry confirmed that she had made no formal request to visit the occupied West Bank – standard protocol for any foreign dignitary.
The oversight could prove embarrassing for Mrs. Palin's advisers, who are unused to planning for foreign visits and have a reputation for being poorly organized.

See, Sarah – maps are our friends:
So apparently while there was “No room in the inn” in Bethlehem for Sarah, at least she can claim she was able to see it from her window.
