Today was a beautiful day to take a trip. The weather was beautiful and we began with a bus ride to Ashkelon. We had plenty of time on the bus to read and talk with one another because today was a day full of traffic. I guess everyone must have been out having an exciting day like us as well. After some driving, we arrived at Ashkelon and had a great tour regarding the Canaanite people. We has had the opportunity of seeing the oldest known archway in the world.
After seeing the archway, our tour guide gave us great explanations about the old Roman basilica and the ancient church at Ashkelon. After the tour, we headed to a great lunch right on the sea. It was a great time for us all just to relax and enjoy a meal together. Afterwards, we headed back many of us spent our afternoon walking throughout Jerusalem and exploring many of the beautiful holy sites there.
