A busy day and I'm likely going to run out of internet time before I get too much done on here, but I'm going to try and put up something. We are headed to Amman, Jordan tomorrow and Petra, Jordan for two nights after that. I don't have a clue what the internet situation will be there.
Today...
Tel Megiddo - Megiddo valley is where Revelation talks about the final battle happening. It's known more commonly as Armagedon. The "tel" or hill that is there is the remains of some 26 conquering, destroying, building cycles. Finding that out I can begin to see why this desolate but beautiful place would the site of the final battle in which good wins out decisively and for all time in John's apocalypse. (It was cloudy today.)
We next went to Caesarea Maritma (Acts 10:1-46). In a truly unfortunate decision, I decided to leave my camera on the bus to tour the location of the ancient Roman ruins in the national park. Major mistake. It was GORGEOUS! Hopefully I can grab some of the pics of others later. I did manage to snap some photos of the local aquaduct at a brief photo stop after we left the park.
We also went to Haifa and Accho/Acre/Acko/Ptolemais.
More later if I get internet connectivity again.
