April 24 to May 1st.... Laurie and Amanda came to visit!

We are HOME in Tampa...  I heard that cheer Ben & Carly!!!!  or was that Jen?

This trip to the Garden Tomb was especially sweet for us as most of our family came over to visit us while we were there.  Our two oldest grandchildren, Jeff and Kristin Fleming, came over in February.  Tracy, Dean and Torrey came over in March.  Laurie and Amanda came over at the end of April.

Any one that knows us knows that we LOVE Israel and especially love the Garden Tomb.  Sharing our love for this place with our loved one's is very special for us!

It is easy to see from these pictures that we ALL enjoyed their visit...

  Amanda would have willingly staid in Israel with Sami, our Palestinian salesman just outside the Garden Gate...

Mandy's favorite experience?  Not sure it was the Camel ride!!!

Cable car ride to Masada...

Mt. Carmel is one of our favorite places....

Roman Aqueduct at the Mediterranean Sea

We had fun too!

The Dead Sea will never be the same!

and... at the Sea of Galillee...

We plan to return to the Garden in August for ten weeks...
