Today We headed back to the college from the Pilga house. On the way back we stopped by Mount Tabor, and Beth Shean.  We had a eucharist on the top of the mount.   After we took a taxi down the mountain and began our journey back. We stopped at Beth Shean  for a picnic lunch and a quick scavenger hunt around the ruins. After that was a two hour bus ride back to Jerusalem. When we ot back to the college we said goodbye to our tour guide gilbert and rested until dinner. Everyone is going to sleep early tonight for an early departure tomorrow at 6 in the morning for stations of the cross throughout the old city.

This is the view of the veranda looking out on the Sea of Galilee from Pilgerhaus - where we stayed on Saturday and Sunday nights.  It was a great place

We had a celebration of the Eucharist on top of Mount Tabor today (site of the Transfiguration).  The preacher was a young lad from Newfoundland, who did a great job.  Many of the St. Martin's crew are in the background

We stopped for lunch at the ruins of Biet Shean, which is a few miles south of the Sea of Galilee.  It was oppressively hot today

These are a part of the massive ruins of the ancient city of Beit Shean.  It's an awesome place
