Holy, Holy, Holy Anticipation

You know, the anticipation of trips are almost as much fun as the trips themselves.

For about 6 months, Elizabeth, Lewis (our son) and I have been anxiously awaiting this day.  When Elizabeth and I were in the Holy Lands in 2012, we told each other, "we WILL bring our children here."  Now it's Lewis' turn.

Now, getting ready to board a Lufthansa airplane headed first to Munich, and then on to Tel Aviv where we will arrive early Wednesday Morning.

Packed and ready to go

We will ride down the Mifrats Shlomo Promenade to the old city of Jaffa. More commonly referred to in the English bible as Joppa,  it is the oldest part of Tel Aviv -Yafo. It was an ancient Mediterranean port. The most famous biblical story there is about Jonah, who was reluctantly called to preach and was swallowed by a big fish. The area is also known for stories about Solomon and Peter.  Consider reading in the New Testament Acts 9:36-43 to read about the charitable lady name "Dorcas" It was there that Peter performed the miracle of bringing her back to life.

If you're following, you'll probably see my gray & orange hat with a star and gavel. It was a gift from my friends at Bidwrangler. They are my auction software bidding platform company. They have been a great partnership on my digital journey to make auctions as easy as a click. So, you'll probably see my  hashtag #Bidwranglerjourney . I wanted them in some small way to enjoy my journey as they have been a part of mine.

Shalom for now
