Having spent the last ten days exploring the Middle East we commented about how easily we got around. We spoke too soon. Our bus was not able to get to the garden of Gethsemane because police would not let us cross through a marathon. As an alternative we walked across the marathon lines and our tour guide found another bus to take us to the site.
After our visit to the garden, the road to get to the bus was blocked by military. Having woven around them, we reached our bus and then the driver had to fight the build up of traffic to get to our next destination.
However, again our progress was slowed by the marathon when we had to wait ten minutes for the last of the runners to cross.
