We did a very very short stop to see the remnants of the aquaduct system used to get fresh water to Caesarea. Water traveled 5 miles from Mt Carmel to provide water to the city. It was a short stop, but cool…we collected some neat shells on the shore and got some neat pictures. There was also all kinds of period pottery shards everywhere from the construction, so we got some of that too.
Our crew again under the aquaduct support system.
Ran for 5 miles, a lot of it like this. Cool!
Just me and my offspring, having a fun day!
I forgot to post this on the Caesarea blog, and it’s getting late and I have a long way to go yet, so I’m being lazy…but this is cool. This is a period manger/trough made out of sandstone. Would be just the right size for a little baby Savior, methinks! This one was in Caesarea though…not the one Jesus was in…but still neat.
