A few of us made the short walk to the Garden of Gethsemane the first Sabbath (which is Saturday) we were here. We made it just before closing and a kind monk was monitoring those he let into this garden of trees. He only let in several at a time and reminded us to be very reverent. It is a very special place, one that I looked forward to going back to several times while living here. There is a church right by the garden called the Church of All Nations and some of those photos are included here as well.
Looks wonderful Britt. Thanks for sharing! :) I hope you're just loving it there!
