Day 12 on the Trail

Greetings! It's amazing that our tour is almost over, and yet when you're missing loved ones it can seem like a long time. Today was our last day in Jerusalem. The first place we went to was the temple mount.
Here you can still see some of the original pavers that would have been there in Jesus' time.







The Eastern gate from the inside.

Here is a better picture of that street that I posted on the blog a day or two ago.


This is where tradition holds that Jesus was crucified and buried.


Here is another picture of the threshold to one of the gates that Jesus would have walked through.

A traditional style lunch!

This is part of the rock that would've been at the top of the wall where they blew the shofar. You can see part of the inset where they stood.
