Today was awesome! Our schedule was very busy, but we were able to see so much! The fruit and vegetables here reminds me of the grapes Joshua and Caleb carried on their back when they returned from the the promised land. I'm not sure of everything we have eaten, but it has been very very good!
Even before breakfast, Mark was dared to take a "dip" in the Meditteranean, and, of course, he did!
Then we went to Caesarea Philippi early today and saw a Roman temple, the palace of Herod the Great, and a newly excavated hippodrome (where they had chariot races). We also went to Nazareth and to Mount Carmel where we could look over into the Jezrell Valley and see so much of the Bible come to life in a even greater way!
This is our second night here, and we are now in Tiberias near Galilee where we will go in the morning. We could tell you so much more, but it is 10:00 p.m. and we were up at 3:00 a.m. this morning (The time is 7 hours ahead of our time) Our bodies are still getting adjusted.
Thank you again for this gift of love that we will never forget. It's already been great!
We love you family, friends, church family, and 5th graders. (Be good for Mrs. Reese!)
I'll see you on the 24th.
We are praying for you-how marvelous to walk the land where our Savior walked! Last night when Bill told us about the "Blog," Ralph asked if that was like Facebook. Hmmmm?
