Today we started off with a simple breakfast of a boiled egg, pastry with sesame seeds and two kinds of cheese, a small pancake and fruit. Double Espresso yum!!
In the bus and off to Tabgah, the church built on the site of traditionally Jesus multiplied the loaves and fishes to feed 5,000 men 12,000 total. The alabaster windows were a sight to behold - especially since the alabaster was tinged with a yellow and brown mineral causing a beautiful glow in the simple Franciscan church.
A short walk and we were at the church of the Primacy of Peter where after the resurrection, Jesus asked Peter the 3 - part question, "Peter, do you love me"? The church is built over the sight where they had the meal Jesus cooked the breakfast of fish. 153 fish were caught after an unsuccessful night of fishing. 153 is a perfect number in Hebrew numerology.
