Our last day in Jerusalem, so much to see, so much more to see. You could spend a month here and still not see everything. perhaps someday we'll come back.
A last trip to the Church of the Holy Sepulchure. we also walked the Via Delarosa to see the stations of the cross.
Under the alter is the hole that the cross is supposed to have been standing in. Many, many pilgrims and quite a mob scene.
A visit to Gethsemane, some of these trees are thought to be alive at the time of Christ. Quite amazing!
An old british bren carier at a raodside stand we stopped at for refreshments. The drive from Jerusalem to Ein Gev (a vacation holiday resort on the sea of Galilee) was along the border with Jordan and along the Jordan river. Much farming and agriculture.
We stopped at a spot devoted to baptizing pilgrims, Dolly, of course, had to walk in the water.
Hi to you both!...I was a couple of days behind your tour. WOW!....Awesome pics!...Thanks. And great to see Dolly in the pics...A great smile, and of course, a cat...lol! You said you were leaving Jerusalem. Did you see or hear about the clash between Israeli forces and Palestinian protesters at the Al Aqsa Mosque at the Dome of the Rock in the Old City?...Hope you guys were far away.

Hi to both. I have enjoyed your pictures and commentaries. Makes me feel like hopping on a plane to Israel. Look forward to more pictures. Have a safe and enjoyable journey.
