Tiberius Nazareth and arriving at Amman Jordan

Hello Hello! We are now back in Amman Jordan, and have settled into our new apartment. Yay! Just wanted to share some pictures of the end of our stay in Israel… We spent the last week in Tiberius, and visited Nazareth for a day in between:

!Welcome to Tiberius

The view from the resort we stayed at which overlooked the Sea of Galilee


Walking down the street


Really cool looking building… our tour guide told us the history behind the painting that’s on it but, I couldn’t understand him lol


A fishing boat on the Sea of Galilee

A tour boat Steve really wanted to go on


The view from one of the mountains we hiked


My husband is so cute :)


The Mount of Beatitudes






The site where it is believed Jesus multiplied the bread and fish and fed thousands





The site where it is believed Jesus walked on water





This picture has it’s own caption to what site this next group of pictures belongs to ;)





Another church nearby that I could see from this site


Another pic that has it’s own caption for the next group of pics ;)



The Jordan River

LoL Random


People taking a dip or being baptized


There were beaver type animals swimming in the water with the people. They were pretty cute and very friendly! Haha!


Our tour guide Yosif :)


A date tree


Random guy walking his pony… yeah, really random lol


Off to Nazareth…
Church that was built on the site where it is believed Mary lived


Cool looking piece of art in the church


A beautiful view of Nazareth


Last adventure in Tiberius!
We decided to hike a mountain on our own :) This is the mountain we ventured to conquer!


Half way to the top


We made it to the top! The view was breath taking! Pictures to not do the view justice!


Back at the bottom…


Stephen’s battle wounds after some of the rocks slid out from underneath him while we were climbing down


Goodbye Tiberius…

Hello Amman! Aaaaahhh! :)

That’s all the pictures I have for now! I’m starting to get used to it here (I guess)… some other exciting news, I am officially a Jordan University student! I start on Tuesday and I will be taking classes Sunday thur Thursday from 9am-1pm (Their weekends here are Friday’s & Saturdays… different from ours)… aaannndd… I start teaching a theater club next Thursday! I will be working with Jordanian students that speak English, grades 6-11, and the director of the program said they are so excited to have a new American teacher :) I’m so nervous! But really excited! Pray for me! I think I’m more nervous that I will have to take a taxi there and home by myself. I knew it was bound to happen at some point, I guess next week is that point *sigh*. Anyways! Hope you enjoyed all the pics! They took FOREVER to put up haha! Till next time, love you
