Holy Land Tour Day 15

We visited Lazarus' tomb.

We saw the house Daryl lived in as a child. It is right next to the wall that the Israelis have built to keep out the Palestinians.



We visited the Israel Museum. They had a model of the Old City of Jerusalem. Daryl's picture looks like it could be lifelike.


We visited an Olive Wood shop and watched how they carved statues.

This day we also visited the Holocaust Museum. I wasn't looking forward to this because I was afraid of it being very graphic, and I was worried that 1 1/2 hours there would be too long. It ended up being too short and I wish I could have spent more time reading all of the fascinating stories. It ended up not being graphic like I expected and I am glad I was able to go.
