Friday post Israel

How do you live life as a normal person after this trip!!?? Not very easy. We took two of the three kids to see the new Indiana Jones movie. Even that leads to Israel, there really was a Mr Jones and he had the hat, was an archaeologist in Israel!! The movie, pretty predictable, they do make fun of Indy's age, but still had a swarm of bugs scene, lots of narrow misses, the bullwhip, the bad guys lost, and a missing treasure. It's entertaining, that's all I could say!! Ok, more pics:

A closer look at the Dome of the Rock - all original tile mosaic work!

In the Old City, just looking up an alley way!

Overall shot from Southern Steps

David Arthur and wife Margaret (she's from Columbia!!!)

Overall shot from area called promenade - a beautiful park, overlooking old city area, gold domes are the Russian Orthodox Church

Catholic Church outside of Garden of Gadsemene, statues are Matthew, Mark, Luke & John

Cave where Dead Sea Scrolls were found in 1947, somehow, picture went back to sideways, so tilt your head sideways to look at it!

Some "tidal pools" at the Dead Sea

Dead Sea, going down below sea level. It is real hazy here, below sea level issues, I think!
