Today at 12, the YM. commissioner

in Palestine, picked me

up in his car & took us

up to Jerusalem, I am on

leave for 4 days, we called

at 7 A.C.H. - where Mr Pickering

shouted us to a drink,

we arrived at about 5 in

Jerusalem where firstly I had

a swim in the Y.M

swimming pool.

then on to British Y.M.

where I am staying, after

tea went out for a stroll

finally decided to go to

pictures, arrived there

& went in with a British

F.S.S. chap, then afterwards

supping together at

the B.Y.M.

 

together, being interested

in his work I gave him

some information to

his advantage & the services 

proving so important

that he was given

24 hours extension in

Jerusalem.

Sun morning we went on

a tour to the old city

calling firstly at

 Solomons quarries, a vast

underground cavern

where one could easily

get lost so vast it is.

then on to the Mosque

of Omar a most wonderful

piece of architecture

considering the little

knowledge the people

of those days had, arabian,

built over the site of

Solomons temple & once

a crusader church -

then the wailing wall,

church of St Anne

Ecco Hommo

Mon morning I visited

the garden tomb or

Gordons calvary, the one

place of Christs burial.

On the return journey, we

stopped at a wonderful

little place called   ?

a place where the late

King Leopold before his death,

stayed, rockeries,

little paths running

along & past gums &

bushes, & a good place

for swimming, a most

charming spot indeed

& one of the prettiest

on the lakeside,

just on 7, a 9 hour trip.

altogether a lovely time.
