Mother Dearest

Chillin' at the Church of the Nativity. Apparently Jesus was born just beneath us.

So my mom got in with no real problems yesterday. We spent today seeing all sorts of sights in Jerusalem as well as Bethlehem, which it turns out means "House of Meat" in Arabic. Weird. Anyway, tomorrow morning we go see the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount, ilhamdullillah, and then it's off to Cairo. We leave Jerusalem at 10 AM, and we should get in to Cairo around 11 PM, I think. It's been a lot of fun, but I'm ready to take it easy, or at least slightly easier.

John,

Great pic. Tell your mom she looks like a teenager in that picture. Have a great time and see you soon.
