Adventures

 Today was a day full of adventure! We walked around Dome of the Rock. It is gorgeous!

 Then we checked out the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It was huge!! There were so many different passageways and places to explore.
 We saw the place where this church believes christ was laid to be annointed before being placed in the tomb. Then we felt the hole in the rock where they believe the cross was placed into the ground.
 After we ran into a little pita bakery and the men let us try thier cookies.
 We met up with more people to take a long walk across the city wall. It was a great view! The walls were high and steep.


 On the way home we ran into a bunch of kids. The boys played soccer with us and the girls taught us how to dance. They spoke English really well! I was impressed. They were so sweet.
