11-10 (Saturday)

After I got up I walked down the street to look at the old train station. I stopped in at the Oriental Hotel. It was built in 1929. The lobby looked like something right out of the movies. Men and women Muslims sitting in chairs lining the wall They were all old.

Today Fayeez told us we could go on a city tour with his group from Sweden. We met them at their hotel which was only a half a block from ours.

We went to the Old City which was fascinating. We saw the tomb of Saladin, the Umayyad Mosque which is where John the Baptist's head is suppose to be.

We had a wonderful buffet lunch. We visited places where Paul is said to have had a revelation
