day four.

we started out the day with a trip to the largest theater in jordan.
and some bright minds started singing "what dreams are made of,"
so obviously we all channeled our inner lizzie mcguire,
sang our hearts out,
and grabbed an ethan craft (our tour directors son)  
we're all so sick of smiling for pictures, 
so the boy band pic won for this location.
then we went to the jordan river,
where Christ was baptized.
 you see that building over there?
that's israel. 
but since we were on the jordan side,
we couldn't just go over
and instead it took us a good 3 hours to cross the border.
there were guards and guns everywhere.
but regardless, 
the spirit was so strong.
and now i'm back home!
well the jerusalem center home at least.

for more pictures and jerusalem fun,
check out my friends' blogs!

  2. I can't tell you how much I want to take a trip like that--my grandparents traveled there in the 70s before a lot of it got so restricted. How amazing! I can't imagine what it's like to visit the place where Christ was baptized. Talk about faith coming to life! What an incredible journey :) xoxo {av}
