Again this morning we were up at 6 am, breakfast at 6:30 and on the bus at 7:30 bound for Mt. Nebo. |
 |
This is the place where God showed Moses the view of the promised land. The dead sea is shown on the center left side. |
 |
Our guide explained this all to us and then pastor Mike read from the bible about God speaking to Moses. |
 |
There was also a Mt. Nebo museum which we visited. |
 |
Our guide informed us what the museum was all about. |
 |
We then stopped at the Mosaic School of Madaba. Many beautiful mosaic pieces were available for purchase. |
 |
We got to visit the area where the mosaic art is taught with many items in progress. |
 |
Here is one of the students learning the art. |
 |
This is a sample of the beautiful art. |
 |
Behind the school was a scale model of the Jordan valley which we all enjoyed. |
 |
We crossed the border to Israel and got a new bus driver on the right named Civon and a new guide Sami. |
 |
We checked in to the Caesar Hotel in Tiberius this afternoon. This hotel is on the Sea Of Galilee. At supper tonight we were entertained with a Bar Mitzvah going on at the next tables. It was quite loud but entertaining. |
