Day Eight In the Promise Land
We woke up this morning in Jerusalem to a downpour. We made our way through the wind and the rain to the Lion Gate of the Old City of Jerusalem. Our first stop was the Pool of Bethesda, and then it was on to Saint Ann Church. There we sang some hymns. The acoustics in this church were beyond words. Next it was on to the Antonio Fortress, and then up the Via De La Rosa which is the street where Jesus carried the cross. After lunch we took a walk through the Rabbi’s Tunnel. This is an underground tunnel running along the western wall. As you can see it is best to be small and skinny for this adventure. God Bless =)
