Wadi Qilt - Entrance to the Wadi and path the St. George's Monastary

Wadi Qilt - It's a long way down

Wadi Qilt - And down, with stops for devotions on the way.

Wadi Qilt - A small aquaduct, made to take the spring water to the city. These have been key to life in the land of Israel since the beginning.

Wadi Qilt - Canyon view

Luke 10:30 Jesus replied and said, �A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and they stripped him and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.

Wadi Qilt - Looking back up to St. George's (ie, you walked all the way down, then crossed the wadi and walked up to the monastary.)

Wadi Qilt - Bell tower to St. Georges. This monastary remembers the parable of the good Samaritan. Note that the parable described what happened(s) along the Ascent of the Addumin, right where this is at.)

Wadi Qilt - Life from the spring

Wadi Qilt - I liked the contrast, The palm, low in the canyon, and looking tall while the cross is way up at the top of the canyon, High and lifted up.
