Israel!

The first morning it was up at 6am with complimentary wake-up call! They are so nice to us! Then, group devotions and breakfast! First stop, Ceasarea. As is our custom, we had to do a group shot at Herod's aquaduct. Not a bad picture, huh?
The first falafal of the trip. Most were enjoyed, only 2 of 10 were tossed out. Can you guess which two kids didn't care for it?
This is the "Jesus Boat". I forget what year it was found but it's pretty awesome!
They esimate that it's around 2,000 years old.
Next up, Beit She'an. This is one of our favorite spots of the whole trip, truly amazing ruins!
This is a view fom the top!
We woke up today at 5:30am, before our complimentary 6am wake up call.
John and I decided to check out the sunrise.
The older three girls have their own room and Jenna is with Mom & David.
It was fun though to have a moment to ourselves.
They call this Abraham's Gate at Tel Dan
It's dated back to the time of Abraham.
These three brave souls, as well as Jenna, got St. Peter's fish, ew!
We got pizza, it wasn't Ray's but it was better than fish!
We ended the day at the Jordan with baptism's. The three in the baptism "sheet" got baptised again, it was wonderful! Of course they had to bear hug Leah afterward to get her all wet!
As usual, we don't know if we'll be able to find more free wifi at our next stop, Eilat. This one is on a boardwalk on the Sea of Galilee. We just got to see fireworks! It's such a blast!
