Dead Sea Hi George and John I love the pictures floating in the Dead Sea. I only walked in it as I am not a water person. You definitely are seeing all of the highlights. It looks like it was a nice sunny day. Stay Safe. Sharyn

Wow!! I have been reading your blogs regularly and communicating with the kids what your days have been like. I can't wait to see all of your pictures hear you talk of your experiences!
Jerusalem Hi George and John I feel like I am there with you as you have an amazing way of writing. As you mentioned visiting the Tomb of Christ was very emotional, you will find that on Easter, Christmas etc. all that you have learned and visited will have a lot more meaning than it did in the past. I went to a Jockey Clothing party last night and bought a couple items from their Travel Collection for future travels. Have fun and stay SAFE. Luv Sharyn
You make it come alive Hello, it is so easy to visualise what you are seeing and doing. You will appreciate in years to come that you did this blog and can relive the amazing time you are having, sounds really special.
We have a long weekend this weekend, it is Australia Day on Monday. Looking forward to relaxing and enjoying the great weather we are having.
Federer just lost in the 3rd round of the Australian open, bit of an upset! Just about to watch two Aussies Groth & Tomic play, we will have at least one Aussie make the 4th round, that hasn't happened in a long time!!
I look forward to reading more of your adventures, lots of love from me xo
wow This trip looks and sounds so amazing. Renewing your vows, casting nets off the boat, eating whole fish. What an exciting, beautiful, educational and spiritual adventure.
I finally carved out a chunk of time to view your wonderful blog posts. Hooray! Great posts and pictures so far. Looks like your having a very memorable trip so far.
Bethlehem Hi George and John When I was in the Holy Land years ago I think visiting the Church of the Nativity was the absolute highlight. I am sure when your trip is over you will both have your favorites. How fun to have lunch with a local family! It is interesting to learn the customs of the country first hand. I am enjoying all of the pictures. I am very happy you are having such a marvelous SAFE time. Love Sharyn
Bethlehem Hi George and John George you really need to ride that camel!! It is a lot different than riding a horse, when you get on they bend forward to get up and you feel like you are going to fall, but it is fun. The wall around Bethlehem, if I remember right, I think that is the wailing wall. I remember people chanting or making very strange noises that weren't much fun to listen to. It sounds like you are having good healthy food for your meals and staying at some very nice hotels. Stay safe and enjoy your travels. Love Sharyn
Hi George and John I am glad you are having such a wonderful tour of the Holy Land and learning from the best. What a special surprise to renew your vows and have your rings blessed. These extra activities must make it fun everyday not knowing what to expect. I am truly enjoying your blogs and pictures. Thank you for taking the time when I am sure you are exhausted. Happy Safe Travels Love Sharyn
Getting an education Hello, I am at work, just took a few minutes out to share in your adventures. I love hearing all of your news and the great photos. You look like you are having fun and having lots of spiritual experiences. Sending you both lots of love xo
Holy Land The nice thing about being Catholic is that you understand the reality of places and objects being holy and sanctified. I toured with a busload of protestants, who were fine Christians, but did not get it when it came to how you feel in your heart when you smell the frankincense and are in the near vicinity or actually touching the things that are holy. (A side note ... If you visit Megiddo, don't go near or touch the round pagan altar there. It's evil) Thank you for the photo of you enjoying your wade in the Mediterranean. Also, try to find some beach glass in the sand and pebbles. You never know. It may be an ancient artifact.
Hi George and John I am glad you are having a super time. George I love your early morning frolic picture. It pretty much sums up the fact you are having a wonderful time. What a beautiful location right on the sea. It doesn't get any better than that.
I can totally relate to your getting a little sentimental seeing all of these sites we have learned about our whole life. I looked in my box of travel treasures and found my itinerary when we went to Israel. It brought back lots of memories. Thank you for bringing these memories back by reading your blog. I am just now, Sunday looking at e-mails as on Thursday I brought my mom to hospital as she started out with just a cold which turned into aching then next day tightness in chest. I brought her to St. Joe's, she has the new strain of flu, short on oxygen, lots of wheezing. This is where I have spent my time. She will be there for a while as it is going to be a slow recovery because of her age. I am working today and will go visit before I go. Thank you for your blog, it is a time consuming venture, but I really appreciate it. Keep safe and enjoy your travels. Love Sharyn
We had to get a map out! Loving your blog and the photos. We are now much better educated on where Israel is ? thanks for sharing, hope you sleep well tonight xo
Last Day Great pictures as usual. I especially liked the Church of Our Savior. We just wanted to compliment you, Georgiana, on your wonderful blog and thank you for letting us tag along on your trip. We have enjoyed it. Thanks so much.
Safe travels home Loved sharing your Scandinavian adventures. Sounds like you have other adventures planned, can't wait to hear about them. Safe travels home xo ?
Great weather Hello ? doesn't good weather add to the enjoyment of a holiday. You are always lucky like that. Love your photos and all of your adventures. Hope you enjoy your last day. We are sat on the couch with E & E watching the Commonwealth games after eating pancakes for breakfast. Australia is doing well ? enjoy your last day. Sending you a hug xo
Beautiful Copenhagen Copenhagen looks beautiful. As a gardener, I enjoyed the beautiful pictures. I'm sure Sharyn's granddaughters will find it fun that she show a statute of the little mermaid. It sounds like you have been having fun conversing with the local people. That was one large box of candy! Enjoy your last day. Thanks for the pictures and information.
Hey! Looks like you two are having a blast! The waterfall pictures look amazing! Hope you are having fun. Janean wanted to know if you and Sharyn med Bjorn from Norwex in Norwary :-) So happy you are able to have so much fun!
Gothenberg Sounds like the best part of your Gothenberg adventures were the towns people you met and talked with. Your description of the dinner you had made my mouth water. Copenhagen will be another Great Adventure. Papa
