Day four in Israel.

Day four was our first field study day. Instead of staying in Jerusalem we got on our bus at 7:00 a.m, and headed off toward the Mount of Olives, Garden of Gethsemane, Herodian, Bethlehem and the Church of the Nativity.



Dad and I with the wilderness in the background. This is the wilderness where Christ was tempted and where the Good Samaritan parable came from.

One of the many Bedouin boys that came to say hello with their donkeys and camels.



Herodian, a palace that Herod built.

Our group standing on the Mount of Olives looking to Jerusalem. The gold dome is the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount.
