The Golden Dome (Mosque)

Note the mosaics on the outside that the 5 Armenian families completed .They were commissioned by the British when they were rulers of the Old City. They are truly a work of art.

Hi Dad & Ruth and all,

Hope you are not too tired by now. Imagine being there just gives you energy. Thanks for the pics,as I'm such a visual person...it helps me understand the places better. The memorials sound very interesting and heartfelt. Can't imagine what it must be like to live there.

Things here are the same. Still working at school. Will be done by next week. Lots to do. Too much, really. Rome wasn't built in a day. God's peace to all of you.

Love,
Mary Elizabeth
