The weather has been warm, but not too hot...a little muggy. For all those who are concerned with safety...couldn't feel safer. A wonderful place the Galilee! Here are some pictures from today's pilgrimage. IF you want even more pictures go back in this blog to January 2012 and the pictures from Kelly and mines trip then...here are the new....

 |
| The famous church built to commemorate the Beatitudes (Sermon on the mount) |
 |
| Another view out toward the place where Jesus spoke |
 |
| One of the most iconic places in the Holy Land. Evidence from 28 AD that this spot was remembered and commemorated as where Jesus feed the 5000. The Mosaic is an early Christian floor showing the loaves and fish |

| Marlene looking out over the Sea of Galilee at the place where Jesus appeared after the resurrection on the beach |
 |
| Linda is touching the "table" which is the place where Jesus had breakfast waiting for his disciples. |
 |
| Marlene standing next to the ancient steps chiseled into the rock leading to where Jesus appeared to the disciples |
 |
| The church of the primacy of Peter |
 |
| Notice the shape of these stones? Jesus asked Peter three times....do you love me? These stones are on the beach where this happened as a reminder of the question. |
 |
| Marlene wading in the Sea of Galilee! |
 |
| What could be cooler. Linda standing in the 4th century Synagogue in Capernaum, which was build right on top of the first century synagogue where Jesus taught and healed. That exact spot. Very powerful place. |
