What a long, wonderful day - in and around Jerusalem. But, the Palestinian Wall.

It takes a long time to lead a group of 27 other persons through the old city of Jerusalem, up to the Al Aqsa Mosque, down the Via Dolarosa, out through the Dung Gate, down the hill to the old city of David - through Hezekiah's Tunnel, back through the Western Wall Heritage Museum, up and out of the city through the Damascus Gate, to the Garden Tomb - and then on a late night tour of Jerusalem with friends who live here and are associated with the Church of the Nazarene. Finishing off the night with a tour of graffiti (including several Banksy originals!) in Bethlehem - but it was a great day.

Pictures include participants Pastor Doug and Andrea near the Dome of the Rock; Pastor Paul touching a rock in the Herodian wall, weighing an estimated 570 tons.  Yes, 570 tons.  My dad and I at the Garden Tomb - and, Allison and I in front of a Banksy.
