Saturday morning 20th Dec.'08
This was the dining room at the King's Soloman Hotel where we had our breakfast and dinner for the next three days. Tables near the windows overlook the Sea of Galilee and we had a wonderful and peaceful start to the day.
We journeyed into Tabgha, to the site where Jesus performed the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes (Mark 6:30-44). The site is also known as the Church of the Heptapegon and the Church of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes. The site is marked by the byzantine mosaic art and the rock was where the loaves and fishes were laid before the miracle was performed.
In the church compound there were quite a variety of colorful vegetation even though it was winter. The bougainvillas gave off a brilliant red while the cactus was huge.
