What will be the reality of this trip?

Holy Land Travels by Stephoni

Hmm... A trip to the Holy Land. When I tell people I am going the reactions are varied. Is it safe? What are you going to see there? I keep wondering what this trip will be like. Will it be touristy? Will I 'feel' anything spiritual? Will I meet anyone who is real? I have no idea what my Isreal-ity will be -- but I am open.

Yes, I rode a camel!




This camel's name is Kojak and he was waiting for me at the top of the Mt of Olives. I rode him for a short distance and looked out over Jerusalem while perched on top. It wasn't scary like I thought it would be, but I did feel sorry for the camel when he had to get down on his knees on stones. I am guessing that the camels in ancient times knelt in the sand.
