Israel Nov 6-16, 2008

What a amazing trip it was. Let me just say this, ISRAEL IS SAFE FOR ALL TOURIST! IF YOU CAN GO, GO. Have you heard of 1 US or any international tourist being harmed in the Hamas attacks or by Israel defending herself? NO, that is the LAST things either of them want to happen because they need the tourism to keep coming. Anyway, I could get on my soap box about this whole thing and how unfair it is to Israel, but I wont. Let me know if you want my opinion!
Art and I were so lucky to get to spend our anniversary in Israel, well we missed the actual day by a week, but it was ok. We learned so much, and walked so much, and eat so much and we are so ready to go back and do it all again.
Here are a few photos but if you want to see more you need to go to Art's face book page. Let me know if you need help to get there. He put EVERYONE of his 1500 pics on there. Crazy man!

In Jerusalem at the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount. This is the biblical, Mt Moriah.
Over looking the old City of Jerusalem

Again, over looking the Old City and the Mt of Olives

Church on the Mt of Beatitudes
The synagogue in Capernaum, Jesus' home town after he left Nazareth
This is a old Roman public bathroom at the ruins in Bet She'an
