Shalom#38

Ok, so we have had a wonderful two weeks with Todd and Tami.  They arrived January 22 and left this am - February 3.  They arrived several days before the students left for their 2 weeks in Egypt which was fun for us because they were able to meet many of the students, eat in the cafeteria with them and see a little of what makes up our responsibilities here at the JC.  This trip to Egypt is one of the highlights of the students semester in Israel. We did not go as the physician couple this semester because fortunately there is another medical couple here at the JC who was assigned to go.  It meant that we would have 2 free weeks....what a perfect time to have visitors.     I am going to refer you to Tami's blog:6krazkids.blogspot.com for the last 2 weeks.   She was so diligent in keeping a journal and blogging about our experiences.  We were so blessed to spend this time with them and hopefully more of our family will be able to visit while we are here.   I think I can speak for them as they felt the same way I did when we arrived....no words can really describe the experience of Jerusalem or the places of the Savior's life and to be in a country so rich in history and centuries of civilizations mentioned in the Bible.  Please visit her blog for a great experience...........6krazkids.blogspot.com
