If we’re friends on Facebook, you probably saw a few pictures from our Israel & Egypt trip. Here are a few more for your amusement. It doesn’t even begin to show all the places we saw and things we did. But I don’t want to be one of those people who make their friends look at every travel picture!
Jerusalem! The Temple Mount as seen from the Mount of Olives.
Some of our Westmont friends — on the Sea of Galilee.
D’Aun, Rachel, and me. Jerusalem in the background.
D’Aun being baptized in the Jordan River.
The Western Wall.
Amir, Maggie, and Rachel, shopping in Bethlehem.
On a triple digit day, D’Aun and I enjoying the Ein Gedi waterfall.
Saint George Monastery.
D’Aun and I inspected a fixer upper outside Cairo.
The Nile River at sunset.
The astonishing Cave Church in Garbage City, Cairo.
D’Aun, Maggie, and Renee, bargain shopping for silver jewelry in Old Town Cairo.
Walking through Old Town Cairo with Bill (in the hat) and our ever present security officer (in the suit).
Hiking to Mount Sinai at night, and I was pushed aside by a stubborn camel. Still have the cuts on my leg to prove it!
Made it to the top for the sunrise. My head is shining because, like Moses, I met God up there.
A day for Bill, Renee, and D’Aun to enjoy the beach! Not so much for my pale skin. I did envy the Muslim women swimming in burkas — what a great idea for skin cancer freaks like me!
