I'm back from the Galilee and it was great! I don't have tons of time to write right now but here are some pictures, I'll tell you all about it later.

This is some sort of fruit blossom in the water at Ceaseria Philipi

The Church has a small branch in Tiberias on the Galilee. The branch meets in a renovated home that is beautiful, this is the view you get from the chapel.

The Sea of Galilee (which is really a lake, Lake Pend Orielle is bigger) is wonderful and way fun.


This was taken up at Nimrods Castle. The castle is huge and really neat. While exploring I found the old cistern and it had over two feet of water in it, it was great!

This is a shot of the church on Mt. Tabor, the traditional site of the Transfiguration. I loved Tabor and this church, it is one of my favorites.

This is an old market place in Accor. Accor was the 'capitol' of the crusaders.

This is on Arbel, it's an overlook of Galilee. I'm standing on a cliff edge that was very pretty.

This is the old harbor at Accor.

If you ever get to go to Tel Dan, do it, this is what you find, streams, springs, and green, I loved it.



Crusader tunnels in Accor!

Corina studying and writing at Ceaseria Philipi.

This boat was on a rood in Accor, if y0u haven't noticed, Accor is very photographic.

Where the Jordan River leaves the Sea of Galilee there is a spot where people from all over the world come to be baptized. It was interesting to see how folks do it, but it was good to see peoples devotion.

This is Amanda, on of the other Idahoens (go Idaho!), we took this picture at En Gev, the kibbutz we stayed at.
