"Meet me on the Sunny Road"

More peace from the Holy Land!

Today we went on our second field trip. We ventured into the West Bank...dun dun dun! It was actually really cool crossing the border and seeing the "No Israelis" signs. I'm glad I'm an American. We played in Jericho and surrounding areas. Yesterday a group of us went to Ein Kerem (the town that John the Baptist was born) and chilled in the almost European city for the day. Needless to say I have a ton of pictures

So I'm kinda big deal here in Jeru....I've been hanging out with Obama and His Holiness aka the Pope! It's pretty legit.

Kellyn and I standing by Herods Winter Palace. He had two swimming pools....yep he was loaded!

The Oldest human made structure in the world. It dates back to 8000 BC. It's almost as my high school english teacher! Wow

Bod and I chillin by the Jericho Wall...you know the one that fell! Pretty sweet stuff!


Scarves are the it thing here....and we like to be it!
Chillin with his Holiness!
Obama even rocked it at one of our parties. Like I said I'm a big deal here!

This is us standing on a cliff looking across the Judean Plains. So incredibly beautiful

Rockin the Utah shirt infront of 50 differnt readings of the Lords Prayer! The tile work was beautiful. This was at the Church of Vistation in Ein Kerem where by tradtion Mary came to visit her cousin Elizabeth before she gave birth to our Savior!

Every road is a Sunny road in Jeru!
