Nativity



This was FABULOUS!
My sister in law told us about this and we went together to a miniature Bethlehem.  We waited in a line about 3 or more blocks long but it was well worth the wait.

While in line Centurions, Herod, people on their way to Bethlehem and animals kept us entertained.





 Once we got to Bethlehem we had to pay our taxes and then sign the scroll for the census.









 


Then we walked through the town.  We saw people making bowls, leather, bread and selling fruit.






"And there were shepherds out in the hillside keeping watch over their flocks by night"






"a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
Glory to God in the highest,
      and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
