This is me sitting on a downed pillar at the city of Bet Shean. The city was built of marble and it took hundreds of years to complete. The whole city was then leveled in 7 seconds by a massive earthquake.

I got Lukes pictures from the Israel Trip. This is me at the entrance of the cistern at Bet Shemesh.

This is a picture that I drew today in school. I found a picture on the web that was like it so I tried to draw it. I thought it came out well so I put it on my blog. If you didn't know, he is an American Paratrooper from WWII. Let me know how you like it.

This is me on the Temple Mount, in front of the Dome of the Rock. We had to go through two different security checkpoints to get up there.

This is me on the Mount of Olives. In the background is (obviously) the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock. To the left of my head is the Al Aksa Mosque. The Church of the Holy Sepulcher is the gray dome just to the left of the Dome of the Rock. It is hard to see without magnification.

This is just a funny picture on a building in the West Bank. It's a Dove with a bullet proof vest on. We went to the West Bank to see the Herodian and go the Bethlehem.

This is the Golan Heights. The Northern border with Syria and Lebanon. The mountains in the background are filled with Israeli fortresses and listening posts. This picture was taken on the northern side of Israel only a few Kilometers from Syria. We could actually see Syria from the other side of the bus. We went to the Golan Heights to see Caesarea Phillipi, a central place for pagan worship where Jesus first asked his Disciples "Who do you say that I am?"

This is a picture of the begginning of the Jezreel Valley. We were on top of Mount Carmel in the northern part of Israel.

Here is the place in the Jordan River where many of us were baptised. The water was freeezing cold and we had to walk all the way back up a big hill to get to the bus.

These signs were on both sides of the path up to the city of Susita. It was one of the ten cities of the Decapolis.

This is the Sea of Gallilee at about midday. This was taken from the Eastern side of the Sea. We were at a city called Susita which is the most likely place where the demon possessed man was. The hillside in the foreground is covered with landmines.

This is the Sea of Gallilee in the morning.

This is another picture of the Judean wilderness.

Hi. I just got back from my trip to Israel with school. This is a picture of me in the Judean Wilderness. More pics to come.
