I don't know when

Well, they ran us hard enough today that I can't do the day justice now.  Church of the Seplecur, Warren's Shaft, Hezekiahs Tunnel, Holocaust Memorial, Museum of Israel, meeting with 35 yr old Palestinian man who's father was shot by Israeli soldiers, 60 yr old Israeli man whose 14 yr old daughter was killed by a Palestinian terrorist, and another middle aged man who as a Palestinian plotted to blow up an Israeli site but was arrested and spent time in jail - all three now working for peace through helping each side know the other as real people.   
They boil it down to Palestinians want freedom, and Israelis want security, and neither can have what they want until they both have what they want....

I did have more time for digital camera fast as the Holocaust Memorial and parts of the Museum prohibited cameras...just there to take it in - but I'm glad I could record the tunnel - 1/2hour in a tunnel shoulder wide, 5' - 7' high, with running water - only headlamps - amazing!

Church commemorating the death of Jesus

Old City in the Early Morning

A deep section of Hezekiah's tunnel

Look up Hezekiah in the Bible - this tunnel is a 3000 yr old marvel

Mike was in front of me, he's probably about 6'2"
