Trip of Biblical Proportions

A few weeks ago, Ken and I fulfilled one of our long time travel dreams...we walked in the footsteps of Jesus, the disciples, King David and numerous other people whose stories fill the pages of the Bible. We could not have asked for a better time full of reflection and awe through a country steeped in cultural and spiritual history.

Gazing to the Temple Mount (Mount Moriah) from the Mount of Olives


Ken reflecting and praying at the Western "Wailing" Wall


Caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered


Taking an afternoon "swim" in the Dead Sea


"Siesta time" on top of the Temple Mount


Theatre ruins in biblical Beth Shean


Felt like we were walking on water as we sailed on the Sea of Galilee


Taking a stroll through the Mount of Olives


Ken conquering an Israeli tank at the border with Lebanon


Overlooking the Mediterranean Sea at Caesarea
