Only the quickest of moments here at the computer...
I've got a whole new impression of Israel now - it's green! Not quite the 40 shades like Ireland has, but a few days of rain and all the land is lush, wildflowers, flowing water in the streams, gooey cow patties underfoot. It's wonderful to see the Sea of Gallilee with verdant slopes full of such history... Cana, Nazareth... pick a place mentioned in the Bible, I've visited it or am about to. Four more days until Jerusalem, unless I take another lap around the Dead Sea... Pilgrim fun, but the only other pilgrims I've seen have been the bus variety, no other foot pilgrims.

The path your on..does it cross or intersect in any way with the "Jesus Trail" that has been in the paper and mags of late?
You have arrived at the holiest of lands, where Jesus walked. I think you will find this land full of scerets for your soul that you would never have found with out your prior trips! Have a blessed time!
Your writing make all of the places you've been so much more inviting than any brochure could.
YOUR FATHER, KEN SIEBEN, MY FIRST COUSIN, WHO IS ILL IN NEW JERSEY, USA, WOULD WANT YOU TO COMPLETE THIS JOURNEY, ANN. YOU GO, GIRL.
