Israel-Day9-Mount of Olives
I paid a dollar to get a picture with Peter the donkey and his cute owner.
FYI-the Near East begins on the Mount of Olives.
The Dominus Flevit Chapel. We sang some worship songs in here and some Asian tourists joined us. It has an excellent view of the Temple Mount. This is the only chapel that does not face east.
The inside ceiling. The Messiah is believed to return here (as in the Mount of Olives).
View of the Temple Mount from outside the chapel.
The chapel is shaped like an upside down tear drop b/c this is where Jesus wept as he looked at Jerusalem.
