Thursday

Today we visited the BYU Jerusalem Center, Mount of Olives, Garden of Gethsemane, and the Garden Tomb. Mom, Dad, Jarem and I broke off from the group at lunch time to take a trip down memory lane and visit the old home where I grew up.

Outside the Jerusalem Center

Most of our group watching the Jerusalem Center DVD they show to all the visitors

Jerusalem Center hallway with Brother and Sister Baxter. Going back to Israel 18 years after I left, I realized something funny. Everything seems so much smaller. I remember running through this hallway as a child and I thought it was much bigger than it actually is.

This is the fountain at the Jerusalem Center

Overlooking the Old City

I learned how to ride a bike on this patio of our old home in Jerusalem. I remember it being so much bigger. :)
