Papa and Nana in Jerusalem

Papa and Nana made the long, 15-hour trip across the ocean to visit us. The day after they arrived, we loaded everyone into the minivan and took a trip to Israel.

As we sat down to eat lunch at a playground in the Old City, Andrew made friends with some Palestinian boys. The boys were very surprised that we could speak Arabic to them.

Here Papa and the boys are resting at a Muslim cemetery outside the Golden Gate. This is the gate where the Messiah is prophesied to enter during the Second Coming.
