This was to be an exciting day - a visit to the Garden Tomb followed by Communion and then time off.
Describing Golgotha
Golgotha
Here is the plan of the tomb: a door leading into a weeping chamber and a large tomb area on one side - with one finished burial place and a unfinished burial place.
Ellen in front of the burial chamber - with some inscriptions on the back wall

Ellen outside the tomb door
and beside a quiet reminder that He is risen
We moved to a quiet place in the garden for communion. Here are the communion cups, perhaps from olive wood?

as well as pure white

Next we made our way through the bazaar - to this small Austrian cafe. Passing the fruits and stuff - too much before lunch
