This morning we checked out of our hotel at the Sea of Galilee. We had mass at a St. Peter's church near the hotel. This was a crusader church built around 1100 AD. It had some lovely carved wooden statues which were left in the original wood (not painted) - they were really beautiful.
Most of the rest of the day was spent traveling back to Tel Aviv and then to Rome, for part 2 of our trip. So not much else to say about today, except that our hotel is right next to the Vatican, and we had a wonderful Italian dinner tonight, with veal, pasta and a Napoleon pastry dessert. Kathleen particularly loved it.
But stay tuned - we'll have lots to post about Rome tomorrow!
