Last Day in Israel

Well, this part of the trip is over.

We just picked up our email and would like to express our sympathy to Ben and the rest of the family. What a shock. We will certainly miss her. Our last memory is of a woman of faith, very much alive and hoping for more life. We will pray for you in your grief.

What an amazing trip this has been! We have learned so much. When we thought we had seen enough ruins, we spent time with the people of the land and when we thought we had heard enough stories of people, we discovered interesting things about the Bible and when we were done that we were back to ruins. Always interesting and increasing in knowledge.

The first picture, they are not in order, is at the aqueduct at Caesarea. There are actually two aqueducts beside each other, one built by the Crusaders and one built by Herod. The other is a working olive press and the last one is the theatre in Caesarea. They were actually preparing for a concert of some kind. The acoustics are amazing, but they were still filling the place with banks of speakers and a sound board the size of a ping pong table.

We have really enjoyed this trip, but are also really looking forward to vacation.

Love,

George and Carla
