T'was the night before Israel


T'was the night before Israel and all through my condo
piles and piles made me feel gonzo.
My suit case was waiting by the front door with care
In hopes that my limo would soon be there.
I set my alarm for half past one
jumped into my jammies and dreamt of the fun.
So now my dear reader, now wait you must do
for updates to come, pray the internet comes through.

Hey, mom...where are you!? I want to be able to talk to Sky. I really miss him. I hope you're safe and having fun!

Hello Ladies!!!

What a blast we are having. I was rebaptized today in the Jordan River. There are so many people from all over the world here. It is really amazing.

We went to the wailing and saw the students come down to the court yard and dance. It was like a mosh pit service except some of the men had guns.

We got to see Caesarea by the sea. It was abolutely magnificant. I wish my camera wasn't having issues. Here is a link to information about it. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/vie/Caesarea.html

we also went to Beit She'an. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Archaeology/Beitshean.html

It was too huge to go through. We were there for about 45 minutes when it takes about four hours to walk through it. They haven't fully escavated it.

We also went to Mt. Carmen where Elijah and the prophet's Baal duked it out. http://www.bibleplaces.com/mtcarmel.htm

Yesterday we went to see the Jesus Boat. It was really nice. http://jesusboat.com/nopen.asp

We also had church on the Sea of Galilee. http://www.bibleplaces.com/seagalilee.htm It was a real party.

We went to Gadera too. I couldn't walk up the hill so just looked up at the ruins.

I'm tired and need to go to bed. I will try to make another post with pictures before my 24 hours is up. It cost me $17 for 24 hours of wifi service. That one e-mail I sent cost $8 American dollars. I didn't know that the little prayer about the internet coming through was going to be such a deal. I guess money talks while on vacation.
