Monday morning the local adults headed
off to work while Lexi when to the last week of a daily music camp. Natalie,
Leroy and I hung around for a short time before heading off to the Bible
Museum. We all had some books to read because almost immediately after our
arrival on Saturday afternoon we went and got books as it is never fun to be
without a book to read. At the Bible Museum we were the first ones there so we
did not have to wait in the line that Sarah had warned us about. When we
reported such at the end of the day Sarah could hardly believe that had
happened as she had waited 30 minutes as had Stephen on the day he had gone.
I was a little unsure as to whether I would
like this excursion, but was surprised and pleased to find it very interesting.
There was a lot of history displayed about many different Christian, Jewish,
and Muslim faiths. Most of it was about Christian background. There were plenty
of things that seven year old Natalie could do involving some hands on
activities, consequently she did not get bored. Although, when asked by her parents
at the end of the day, she declared it to have been very boring. We managed to
spend about five hours there and not see it all. There did come a point when we
all were at the saturation point. Home was the place to be.
I am always impressed by how many kind
and helpful people there are in the world. As we came out of the metro and were
getting our bearings, a sidewalk sweeper asked if we needed help. He then
proceeded to give us great, easy to follow directions. I did use my phone map
as well and it was perfect.
