Well we have access to internet again and have a few stories to tell.
On Wednesday, we climbed to the top of Mt. Sinai. We got up at 2:00 in the morning and were walking in the dark by 2:30. Our group is pretty amazing. They are so together and on time. It took several hours to get to the top and then we waited until the sun rose. There were several thousand people there plus camels and donkeys. It was not a place of solitude and wilderness, it was a tourist attraction, but the sunrise was pretty beautiful.
On Thursday, we went to Petra. The walk in was amazing and the site is absolutely amazing. It is no wonder that it is one of the 7 wonders of the world. Wraith, if you are reading this, we have great pictures.
Today we swam in the Dead Sea and also got wet in the springs of En Gedi, which is where David hid from Saul. We are stayin in a very fancy hotel in Jericho for night. George is a little sick as are a number of other people. Probably something we ate in Egypt or Jordan. Hopefully better soon again.
