THE PLEASURE IN TOURING

In the year 2000 my wife Anita and I took the Margaret Morse 21 day tour and visited Israel. A side trip to the ancient city of Petra in The kingdom of Jordan was offered and we opted to go with a small group of others; all of us were extremely happy with our decision as many experts name Petra as one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

By the way, we checked a new list of 7 Wonders and found we visited The Coliseum in Rome, the Parthenon & Acropolis in Greece the Masada in Israel and the ruins of Pompeii located near the city of Naples and close to Mount Vesuvius, in Italy and St. Peter’s Basilica. Not bad!

Another fascinating side trip offered by Morse was the Christian Old City tour in the Christian Quarter of Jerusalem. First we visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Some time later we walked the street of the Via Dolorosa; Christ walked those same cobblestones carrying his burden of the cross 2000 years ago.

We strongly hope some day you too will have the time, the money, and the desire to tour the world.
