Lately

Me and my Jordan roommate, Britt. I had so much fun with her. We stayed in a huge hotel, and we had a suite, and loved it. Us with 'da Prez
Petra



And a fieldtrip pic, outside Jru's old temple walls

Things have been pretty crazy here. And...I forgot I had a blog. But, Jordan was absolutely amazing. I loved it there. The people there were so nice, it was so great! We saw Petra, Amman, and the old city of Jerash. Mosques, stadiums, and bagpipes with dancing Jordanian girls.


Since being back we've had a great field trip to Qumran, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found, and then floated in the Dead Sea. Loved that, because you really can just sit there and float!


And today we finished up finals! 3 finals in 2 days, and now we're down to less than a week here. Winter 2011, no regrets :)

Oh Galilee

Chels and I at Capernaum. This was one of my favorite days, it was so cool to see where Christ spent most of his time.

Attempt at walking on the Sea of Galilee


An amazing hike, to a freezing waterfall
View from Mt. Arbel
Mmm mmm fish

Eating St. Peter's fish, at the fish restaurant, want me to say fish one more time? Fish.


Gamla, the "city upon a hill" and one of the prettiest places I've ever seen.

And, me and Neal on the Sea of Galilee, so cool. He's pretty cool too.
Galilee was so amazing! I loved it so much. Bonfires, pretty hikes, and walking where Christ walked. I love the people here, and loved learning from the New Testament. Galilee will be hard to beat, but Jordan can try.
