Megillah Search

After staying up all night listening to the weirdest shiurim ever, I walked with a friend to the kotel...but she was very concerned about not being able to hear migilat Ruth, b/c you can't hear anything on the ladies side...So up we went into the Rova to find a minyan... First we went to the Ramban's shul (but he wasn't there...) which we missed the first five pasukim in the megillah. By the time it was laining time we couldn't hear a word. The girl that I was with heard that the Churvah Shul was almost up to laining, why don't we go up there. Up we climbed into the Churvah just in time for a d'var torah giving chizuk to everyone who has stayed up....for about 15 minutes....not funny...then they were up to...Megillah...so once again we heard Migillat Ruth. About the same time we were starting laining, the shul next door Something Menachem, was finishing. This brought close to 150 boys out of the shul in the courtyard to hear kiddush. While Cohen was fairly audible...the following aliyas were not... Somehow I managed to convince my friend that we did not have to find a third minyan and we could just go home... Interestingly enough, she was keeping two days and never made it a second day minyan...stating that she had already heard the megillah....
