Trip to the Holy Land Jun 21, 2008
Never having been religious I decided to tske a trip to the Holy land in Israel.. It was an amazing experience..
By bus we travelled with a guide from Eilat he was an Israeli licensed guide called Oded Cohen, he was just brilliant and made us all feel very safe in an unpredictable country.. i felt safer there than some places in the UK.. After an informative and beautiful bus journey we arrived in jerusalem. We followed what i think is called the Via Dolorosa (please tell me if I have any wrong info)following the footsteps of Christ.. We visited the following places, The Mount of olives, The church of the holy Seplcure, the garden of getsemane, the alleged place of the crucifiction and finally the wailing Wall, which was packed!! we had to go through a security point here and a metal detector!! Also went to lovely little cafe called friends Cafe in central Jerusalem for a nice lunch.. I would have liked to see more but we ran out of time.. Flew back to eilat from Tel Aviv ben gurion airport. recommended visit!!

I love Jerusalem.
That about sums it up. I hate to use superlatives - especially while being in the moment & without time for context - but I dare say the old city here is my favorite location I have ever visted. All time. … Holy Land |

Some wear their backpacks in reverse like armor, as they wade into their battle against the shopkeepers and pickpockets of the Holy Land’s narrow allies. In the Jewish Quarter, on Saturday, there is a different scene altogether. Stores are shut for the Sabbath and there is no commercial traffic. Young couples wander between each other’s homes for visits. Stroller-pushing women wearing limp wigs… The Old City (8/12/07) |

Holy
Land , if I remember correctly. The Cathedral was a large round
building, and inside several colorful pillars filled the large single room
whose domed roof was covered in picture of Jesus with wings. A solitary
Ethiopian worshipper was inside, reading his bible quietly. Surrounding… Israel - Jerusalem, New City |
