This is my favorite picture. Mom took it this morning outside of the Hotel. It was cold all day. It was wet snow and still many tour busses were at the sites. The Nigerians were waiting at the Garden Tomb when we got there, but it opened at 2 pm and we were scheduled before them. There were about 50 or 60 of them. The doorman called out "Asher's group" (that is our guide's name, thus Aunt Bonnie dubbed us "Asher's Tribe") and the mumbling started, and we heard as we went by, "Who are they? I don't know, from the USA, Utah, and some from New Zealand, Why do the get to go ahead of us?" etc. It is really rather fun to see such big groups from so many countries go. It increases your faith in the general Christian community. The Nigerians got in soon enough that they weren't mad for very long.
