JORDAN

Temple of Hercules


JERASH



Piers Tuller

Piers was a celebrity with all of the Muslim girls at Jerash, or in the Bible known as Jershon. It was later Roman city with a sweet theater.

Father Dabbour is a family friend who lives in Amman, Jordan, stopped by the hotel to say hi.



This little Bedouin girl took us on a climb up this cliff to her "favorite view" She was so precious.

Mt. Nebo where Moses held up his staff to heal the people, but they wouldn't listen.

Israel Museum

We were a team for the 4 hour museum experience.


I love this girl sooo much. Her name is Jeni Gubler and she is from st. G and she rocks.

This is where the Dead Sea scrolls are located. This is Lindsey Christensen standing in front of it. We still haven't figured out if were distant relatives or something. We were both so stoked to learn that day, poor aj had to drag us out of the museum.
