Dreaming in Holy Land

Remember the song that goes something like, “tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet, did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day…” Well, yes! I mean no, I wasn’t swept off my feet by wind, but yes, after rain and wind went away, I did get the chance to dance along beautiful sunshiny trails and beautifully bright mornings… It is so beautiful here and so wonderful to be able to wrap myself in sunshine and warmth. I am always amaze at how the sun shines here in the south… it seems to have a different illumination here, sort of a magical and wonderful brilliance that I cannot find in the north… sunshine and warmth—it makes me shiver with content and joy, and it makes me want to dance… and dance… At some point during the day yesterday, something got over me... I felt I was being transported to the Holy Land… And perhaps I was!
We got to share bread and wine with some very special people...
And we witnessed the most amazing happening of all times. It was really astounding, and I was lucky to have it all captured in memories forevermore…. Hope you all have a blessed and sunshiny weekend!! I’ll try to post my “Show Off Your Cottage Monday”, but I might not have Internet where I’m going next, so if you don’t see my post there, now you know why.

    What an amazing suprise to see The Holy Land in Orlando in a blog post! I watch TBN all the time and have enjoyed watching Jan and the crew build this wonderful place.
    Thank you so much for posting this ~ I can't wait to go someday to here and the real Holy Land!

    Hello,
    I was reprimanding myself for my loving storms confession/comment in your last post - after I wrote it I saw the terrific weather that hit that area - so thankful you and all are alright.
    This looks amazing - love the flower cart and I would probably weep watching the Passion of Christ - touches my heart deeply to know someone loved us sooo much - Hope you have a marvelous vacation - drink up the Southern sun! It is further south in the winter and more intense.
    God Bless,
    Kathy

    Oh my gosh Cielo, I had to scroll down to see if you were in Orlando. I have been to the Holy Land in Orlando and recognized the scenes you shared. It was beautiful to see but the scene of Jesus made me cry.

    We lived in the area (Kissimmee)for several years before moving to the mountains. I hope your vacation is wonderful. Orlando is a magical place.

    Warm hugs and prayers for safe travel.
    Love, Jeanne
