Day 6, we went in the morning to tell Lachish in the southern portion of Israel, known as the Shefala. We walked around and hiked up the tell and then we headed to Jerusalem and spent the afternoon in the Israel Museum. We got to see the Dead Sea Scrolls as well as some other ancient artifacts. Michael led the tour and was like a kid in a candy shop. Beheaded back and went through some of the old city on our own. On my morning run I found the spot where we love to look out on the old city as well as the fountain that Jeremiah used to Splash in all the time when we were here last. I also have a picture with Susanna with a Magnum Bar as those are Our favorite.

Day 5
Day 5, we started our Day visiting Christ Church in The Old City. It was amazing to worship with other believers around the world. We then went to the Mount of Olives and saw the view of the city as well as went to the Garden of Gethsemane. We also visited the old city of David and some went through Hezekiah tunnel and some of us went through a dry tunnel which was an old Canaanite tunnel.
Day 4
We drive down to Jerusalem today, stopping at En Harrod, a spring, then we traveled to Bet Shean and then went to Qumran where the Dead Sea scrolls were found. We took a little hike to a cave. On the way back, Michael took us to the Judean wilderness and a little monastery tucked away, St Georges, beautiful.
