Hi All
I guess it is a week of lasts here as we are trying to get packed up. We have a few more things to finish up -- today Traci and I are hiking up the Mount of Olives for one last time, tomorrow we are heading to Ein Karem to see some churches and a synogogue, tuesday we will be finishing our StarWars mini marathon at Luke and Sara's (there was great shock when everyone found out that Jer had never seen the last 3, the old good ones I mean). I'll also be doing a bit more shopping here in the old city if anyone has any last requests. We will then head out to Tel Aviv for a couple days at the beach with Eric and Traci and Luke and Sara. We were in Netanya last weekend and there were a number of jellyfish in the water -- they are huge, and Jer and Eric both got stung quite a bit. Anyway, we are hoping there won't be too many in Tel Aviv yet. Then we are off -- we will be cancelling our internet in a few days but will still be checking our email in Rome I think, but the posts on this page may be few and far between, we'll see. Alright, See everyone soon!!!!!

This is one of the jellyfish -- they are really heavy and bigger then a basketball and were all over the beach and in the water. The picture below is so funny because it looks like Luke has no body. funny. I think that Eric is lost under the wave to the right of Jer.
