The No Name Blog אנה מארי: America Rocks!
http://annamarieellertson.blogspot.com/2012/07/america-rocks.html
The No Name Blog אנה מארי. Thursday, July 26, 2012. Hope of America anyone? This is long over due but I thought some might still be interested to see how the JC celebrates the 4th! Saw this in some car in East Jerusalem! The kitchen staff prepared the most American meal possible: fried chicken, corn on the cob, baked potatoes and apple pie (which I missed out on unfortunately). These cute Ludlow brothers are such a help to Marissa and her poor broken ankle! Happy late 4th Everyone! A Couple of Love Birds.

http://annamarieellertson.blogspot.com/2012/08/soakin-it-up.html
The No Name Blog אנה מארי. Saturday, August 4, 2012. My time here is short.we get two weeks after Galilee and then we leave on the 9th. Time flies is definitely an understatement! So this is what I've been doing to soak up my last few days here. Explored an abandoned orphanage we happened upon.eerie. Played the bells at the YMCA. Monastery of the Cross (where they believe the tree came from that made the cross). Visited the West Jerusalem Shuk market for the first and probably last time. We so so gangsta!

The No Name Blog אנה מארי. Saturday, July 28, 2012. We just spent the last few weeks in Galilee staying on a kibbutz called Ein Gev. We swam and field tripped galore! Here are some of the places we visited:. Mary's church is on the left - the courtyard was lined with murals of Mary from every country! Gamla (aka "A City Set On a Hill"). Did I mention it was in the Golan Heights? Boat ride across the 'sea'. Master the tempest is raging.". Hike to the falls. Us fearless hikers us! Bahai Gardens in Haifa.

The No Name Blog אנה מארי: June 2012
http://annamarieellertson.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
The No Name Blog אנה מארי. Sunday, June 24, 2012. Once Upon a Time. The title of this post is part inspired by the new Sara Bareilles song "Once Upon Another Time" (unfortunately I cannot post it on here due to lack of access to the YouTube) which is currently stuck in my head.and part inspired by the fairy tale I feel like I'm living! Coincidentally also the name of a Sara Bareilles song but not currently stuck in my head). Field trips on Mondays - this one was at Neot Kedumim. Eating on the seaside.

The No Name Blog אנה מארי: Bethlehem
http://annamarieellertson.blogspot.com/2012/07/bethlehem.html
The No Name Blog אנה מארי. Sunday, July 15, 2012. How far is it to Bethlehem? Church of the Nativity. Where the manger "was". A replica of THE manger! Tomb of the Shepherds. The hillside overlooking Bethlehem where we sang Christmas hymns. Bethlehem on our left. How far is it to Bethlehem? Shall we find the stable room lit by a star? Will we find the little child? If we lift the wooden latch may we go in? May we stroke the creatures there oxen and sheep? May we peep like them and see Jesus asleep? Life w...
