Mas picturas!

Aloha. I've taken advantage of a quick trip to Hebrew University, where the internet can handle uploads, so I'm posting pictures, but I may not have time to tell all the stories in this post. There are videos too. So..............I hope this will all make sense eventually. There are also pictures from out journey through the Judaean Wilderness to Jericho. Enjoy!

The monks' rooms inside the monastery.

The ceiling inside the Monastery. This place was built by the Greek Orthodox Church.

There are videos too. So..............I hope this will all make sense eventually. Some of the pictures are of a spur of the moment adventure with a couple guys from the group that landed us inside tombs, in an idyllic olive grove, up the backside of the Old City and up on the rooftops. There are also pictures from out journey through the Judaean Wilderness to Jericho. Enjoy!

Jericho from the Monastery at the Mount of Temptation. The long, skinny, raised mound in the middle is the tel where the ancient city of Jericho was built. Google "tel" to learn more.;)

Okay, malfunctions have forced me to quit. Just as I was getting to the good stuff....... Anyway, I'm going to Egypt tomorrow morning, so I'll try to get caught up on my adventures before leaving and we'll be in touch. There's no guarantee of free wi-fi in Egypt. So until then, spread my blog. We'll be in touch.
