Reflection Upon This Trip

Hopefully this will help me to both wrap up this assignment, answer Prof. Baldwin's questions, and cover the reflection requirement.

To Begin with, the end of the trip was full of crazy times. We visited a few more historical sights, we got to walk a few more cities, visit a few more historical sights. Some of the interesting highlights of the untold parts of this story include seeing Jimmy Carter check into the hotel, my run in with Israeli Secret Service, a trip through the Arab Market, and so on. To reflect upon the trip, I found that unlike many people do, I did not experience anything religious revelation within my life. Though, on the other hand, it did leave me with a lasting impression of what it is like to be an outsider, and helped me gain some concept of what non-Americans think of this country.

Professor Baldwin, as for your comments, I hope that this bit above helped wrap things up without making my project too long. With the map i found that to be extremely difficult. There were few if any locations to be found through searching, and to try and look for one building, or hill by a distanced view to be way too difficult. So, there are ten if you are willing to take your time and zoom in on a few of the areas where they overlap (Israel is a small country, and thus alot of sights within the country are located relatively close to one another). Also, I hope that some of the pictures being directly uploaded from my computer will not cause me to incur any penalties in my final grade. After posting the first four through FLICKR as directed i felt i could sneak away with being lazy and just directly adding them.

In conclusion, I hope you have enjoyed reading my project, should you have any further questions, or comments which might help me in the future please let me know.
