hezekiah's tunnel....

Still playing catch-up....
So for one of our fields trips we got to go to the City of David and Hezekiah's Tunnel. This was a BLAST!! Hezekiah's Tunnel is a little tunnel that was created to take the water from the Gihon Spring (a water source outside of the city walls) to the Pool of Siloam (where Jesus healed the blind man by placing clay over his eyes and told him to go wash it off at this pool). As we went through the tunnel we were splashing through the water. At the beginning it was almost to my waste, but most of the time it didn't get higher than to me knees. We all had to have our flashlights and were winding our way through. It was a TON of fun!! =)

On the way back to the buses we stopped and saw where ^ David and Solomon were buried^
^In the tunnel^
^I WAS TALL ENOUGH TO GO IN!!!^ haha
