What a wonderful day Tuesday was (I'm beginning this Wed morning). We started with an unbelievable breakfast. That picture doesn't show half of what was there. I'll try to include a picture of that breakfast. We drove up to the Mount of Olives to start our tour day. There Duke and Ido both talked to us for quite a while - very interesting! Jesus' Ascent back to heaven happened there. You could overlook some of the Eastern wall, including the Eastern Gate that is sealed at this time. We walked the Palm Sunday road that Jesus traveled on donkey at His triumphal entry. We visited the site of what is believed to be the ruins of Caiphas' house. There is a dungeon there where Jesus possibly was kept the night He was arrested. Our guide took us to the traditional site of the Last supper. We toured David's tomb. All guys had to wear a covering on their head and visit that site separately from the ladies.
How moving for a follower of Jesus to visit Jerusalem! It is a wonderful spiritual experience to visit and meditate on these things
