The Holy Land experience

No this is not the Amusement park in Florida, but our spring break in the REAL Jerusalem and Jordan. (see my post on the Florida version of Holy land in my archive March 2010 "Just hanging out with Jesus"). Our travel buddies, the Sterns invited us out to their son Trevor's Bar mitzvah. So we decided to really take advantage of this trip and even get City baptized in the Jordan river. We accomplished a lot and had a great time. Walked where Jesus walked, trampled through Hezekiah's muddy water tunnels, hiked Masada, painted ourselves in dead sea mud, ate latza matza (because it was pesach and nothing leavened was available), touched the Tora, touched the Western wall, went to church at BYU Jerusalem (rich's old school), wandered the old city, Rode camels and mules just like Indiana Jones did in Petra Jordan. good fun.

I love the photo of the kids in the mud. What an awesome experience for City. I wish I could send her a present for her baptism!
