Wonderful trip so far - beautiful vistas of Jerusalem - golden warm sunlight - excellent tours of the historic and archeological sites. Great conversations with group-mates on all sorts of topics: religion, deplorable US foreign policy, favorite books and places to visit, etc. Lots of laughter and good spirits despite some travel delays.
One regret: too little contact with Israeli Jews' point of view. Result: I'm now a committed Palestinian supporter, without optimism (as one Palestinian Christian said) but with hope for a more peaceful, equitable future for the region.
