Day 7-8
The Central Benjamin Plateau. We started at Gezer, then up to Nebi Samwil for a wonderful view of Central Benjamin. Then it was over the saddle to Michmash and an overlook of the Wadi Qelt in the Judean Winlderness. This is a really important section of land. You should all re-read 1-2 Samuel.
Yesterday was an easy day. Kidron valley tombs, Israel Museum then a free afternoon. A few of us hit the Waffle Bar in the evening. Finally, American breakfast! Even if it was 9pm!
This morning eight of us went on a run around the Old City of Jerusalem! Wow! What a great bunch of students.
All is well. We are heading out of Jerusalem today for the coast and the Negev. We should be swimming in the Mediterranean Sea this evening. Internet access may be spotty for a few days so I'll update as I am able. Thanks for praying. We're over half way through the trip!

I want to know if my sister Joy went on that run around old Jerusalem?
Daniel, Daniel, Daniel,
Why would you ever doubt me to get up at 5am and run around the city? I was the first one in the lobby waiting. Saw the Mount of Olives just as the sun was coming up. So beautiful.
Love the pictures, Steve! I bet the early morning run was amazing. You are so lucky!!! We're praying for you.
Love,
Kat
Any lamelech seals this time? :)
