wow what an amazing mind opening pilgrimage that was! anyone thinking about going... GO!!! im laying on my bed reflecting/ recovering from my trip quick weekend trip to bethlehem from cali... and my mind is just blown...
first thanks to ยฎat , nuart , dora @ pow for encourage me to go when i was nervous..
not gonna lie.. but walking up to this is def a little daunting...
i dont really know what to write without sounding like a broken record about how bad the situation is over there ... but there really is nothing like seeing something first hand with your own eyes.
thank you POW for putting on such a incredibly special charity event like this ...
i will never forget it!

foreman back from the ghetto, by foreman on Dec 17, 2007 10:06:47 GMT 1, thanks guys ... everyone i know thought i was pretty crazy for going out there! and i was definitely a little nervous as this is the furtherest ive traveled away from home in my life. the other side of the world pretty much...
but once i was there i never had a moment of fear as the people were incredibly welcoming and trustworthy.
( only scary part was when the taxi driver got on his knee's to check under the engine of the car for bombs when we were leaving manger square)
my view of this area was definitely different then what my preconceived thoughts were that i gathered from news/media/trash and im glad i can tell others my first hand experience with this area.
I am in Cali and I want to go. are there still prints left to buy? How long were you there?
yes goats there are about 40 left :-) i was there for only 2 days... had to get back for work... really messed up with the jet lag now lol... the trolley and gold flags both look awesome ! happy to get one... but trust me... it will be the last thing on your mind when you get back!
You should really try and go !!! I highly recommend it!!!
