We departed at 8am this morning and went up to Hippos, our dig site. We got a tour of the whole place. Wow. Can I say I'm really excited to get started?!?! There is so much we are going to do, and possibly some amazing things we will find. :)
Second we went to Kursi...the site commemorating the story of Luke 8:26-39..Where Jesus cast out demons from a man into pigs. Schuler believes Hippos, our site, is a better idea of where the story actually happened..
Third we went to Capernaum...Where Jesus and Peter lived.

The girls had to put a t-shirt on because tank tops are not modest, and we had to wear pants that went below or knees...
Then we went to Tabgha...the church that commemorates the first feeding of the 5,000. It was a beautiful church! It was a fully restored byzantine church.
And lastly we went to the church of the beatitudes...The site commemorating Jesus' Sermon on the mount. The place was just breath-taking outside. And you could see the whole sea of Galilee from there.

So I guess I should say good morning. 7a there? How strange. You're in the future!!!! From a certain point of view of course.
The place looks amazing! And when I think that you're walking where He Walked... Breath - taking. What a wonderful experience.
Well, have fun and dig well my friend.
