I just got back from the promise land (Israel) it was pretty amazing.  I didn't get to see the crazy stuff that I was looking forward to such as a man walking down the street with a bomb strapped to him or little children walking around with machine guns.  I only saw a few guys with guys.  But it was really great to walk in the foot steps of Jesus and see the same areas in which he lived.  On Sunday we got to worship with the Nazareth Church of Christ and that was pretty amazing.  Jerry got mad at me and Matt but he got over it.  After having to see the movie Masada we finally got to see the real thing and it was amazing as well.  There weren't very many negatives on the trip, but a warning for whoever is going to go there in the future and plan to see the places that Jesus was for different evens, I'll just tell you that in every spot that they think Jesus was they put a church and its kinda takes away from excitement.  Oh and Americans are not adviced to go outside at night so that sucks but it was a great trip we had alot of fun.  Oh and we got to do something that i have always wanted to do since i was little which is swim in the Dead Sea so i can check that off of my list of thing to do before i die.  It was everything i could imagen... it was really fun. So i guess thats it I miss you all and love you all

P.S.  I can't wait to see you all when i get home

So it has been a while its getting crazy around here with all of our traveling but we are back now for a little while.  Today I got back from the Greek Island Cruise and it was alot of fun.  I got a tan and I now have a funny Austrialian hat.  Let me just say that the Islands are amazing and i want a house there.  So some fun new i got in a fight with a bird and it won i got a cut on my hand. it was funny.  There were some models on the cruise but i wasn't a big fan of them i just don't think models are my thing.... though perry and steven loved them.  So one of the days we went to Rhodes and had a free day and the night before i fell asleep really really early so i woke up early and me and Sean went snorkeling and it was alot of fun until i threw up cause i drank a ton of salt water. well kids thats about it i guess i could give you so of my pics now. love you all

We just got back from Corinth, Olympia, and Mycenae.  We had a good time got to see where the original Olympics were held and that was cool.  Perry and Jason raced on the track and it was pretty funny.  Then we had a six hour drive back home where me and Jill got beat in spades... I know sad day.  So we made if back and got to go out with HUHA John and some of the other not important HUHAs to get crapes... (I love HUHA John, he is probably one of the most goofiest, funniest, and clueless guys I have ever met).  That's it so to all you people back home and to all my friends at HU I love you all and miss you all... and to you subbers there is a good chance we will have a new periscope

P.S.  I found me a Greek girl and she so so amazing here is a picture of her.

She treats me good and she is a looker too.

Well we made it back from Egypt and it was pretty amazing.  this was the first time i had been to a third world country and it was pretty sad to see little kids outside begging for money and water.  But all the sites were awesome and we had an amazing guide to teach us about all of them.  Today the guys that are in Hum. 201 went to a Greek Orthodox Monistary and when we got there we realized that i was wearing shorts and thats not aloud but lucky one of the workers let me use a pair of his so that was nice of him and it was pretty inside the temple and when we went out to the graves of the munks they had all of there skulls out there in a show case it was kinda weird.  So i ran with the track guys today and it was hard.... harder then it should have been anyway. thats about it so i guess i'll just leave you a few pics to look at love you all.... later

Well hello everyone i'm still in greece... hehe so yesterday was a school day for sure, we had to double up on our classes because we are leaving for Egypt on Sunday.  The bad news with that is Matthew my roommate happen to be watching CNN yesterday and apparently there were riots going on all day in Ciaro and that is where we are going and they don't like Americans anyway so thats bad news... but hopefully it will all be fixed by the time we leave sunday. The most eventful time of the day yesterday was the pool time when my team defeated the other team in basketball by about one million points and i made about one trillion points myself. it was amazing but my wrist hurts today from it but i'm a trooper so i think i will make it. so we have a test today and then two tomorrow so its starting to get crazy here. well its time for class so i have to go love you all from harding and the STL see you all in Aug.
