Last pictures from Israel trip

Looking off of Mt. Tabor, the Mount of Transfiguration
Stopped at McDonald's for coffee, and thought you might enjoy seeing the menu in Hebrew
The town of Nain, where Jesus raised the widow's son
Nazareth, where Jesus grew up.
We found a Burger King!
The Valley of Armageddon... where the final battle will take place
This is Caesarea, the town where the first Gentiles were saved in Acts 10
Shores of Joppa, where Jonah was to leave toward Ninevah. This is also where Peter was when he saw the vision of the unclean animals and from where he left to go witness to the first Gentile who became a Christian, Cornelius
Joppa
Mall in Tel Aviv
One of our stops took us to the "Beit Kobi" home, a home started by a fallen soldier's mother (she is pictured on the right) that is now used to house soldiers whose parents live in other countries.
Coffee break
In the airport, ready to go home!
Still waiting to leave....
And waiting....
Our flight was finally canceled due to bad weather in Ukraine, and the airport provided this room and two great meals for free!

  1. Jolene, I haven't been visiting many blogs lately, and just made my stop at yours! I am SO thankful I did! Wow, I was incredibly blessed to see your pictures and hear your words about Israel. Thank you for sharing and please don't stop! I have been praying for Israel a great deal lately. Many blessings to you and your family in 2010!
