Jerusalem and More...

Here are more photos of Days 6-7. Be sure to go back & view the Days 4-5 in the previous post as I added more photos.

We walked through the streets of Old Jerusalem today. Incredible experience! More writing later...it's late & it took forever to get all these photos uploaded. Wake up call is 6am and we're going to the Dead Sea & Masada tomorrow. Can't wait to float on it!

The Holy Lands


Standing on the original street in Bethsaida where Jesus would've walked.


Sorry to keep you all waiting! We FINALLY have decent internet service in Jerusalem....where I am currently writing to you.





What an amazing trip! We actually stood...STOOD...on a street in Bethsaida where Jesus would've walked. How surreal is that?? Not only to see the historical sites but we have received so MUCH historical background about the culture during that time. The scriptures make so much more sense now.





I have very limited time to write but I did want to include the photos for you. Check out these links below. I will try to write more tonight. Our days begin & end from 7am - 5pm every day..filled with Bible studies, lectures, visits, etc. Today we visit the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem & much more.





More later....for now, here's photos!

Tomorrow....

Packing...*check*, house somewhat clean...*check.

Time for me to hit the sack. Tomorrow, Mon., we are up at 4:30am to load up our stuff and head to the airport. By Tuesday, we will be in Israel!

We were very humbled and blessed to have this trip "gifted" to us. Otherwise, who knows when we would have the opportunity to go? Nate is flying with us to Georgia, where he will "sleepover" at Grandpa & Grandma's house while we're gone. Lucky kid!

I will try to update the blog and facebook as often as I can. Every day is packed with tours from 8am-5pm. They said once we get back to the hotel, all we'll want to do is eat & sleep! I believe them.

Please pray for safe travels! Shalom!
