SOOC- Tiberias

[image: Line of Palm trees along street in Tiberias.]

I decided to finally post some pictures from my trip last week. Our hotel was about midway up a tall hill, not far from where this picture was taken.

The first morning there I took a walk down to the shore of the Sea of Galilee, and back up to the hotel.

The next day I walked up from my hotel to where I took the following picture, and then down again. So I effectivly walked to this height from the seashore (and back) over the two mornings.... It is actually not that much of a walk, but in the not-so-early morning, it was hot, so the walk seemed longer.

Just wanted to tell you I started reading your blog b/c of Rikki. I have a 15 yr old son w DS. But I have learned so much more..about Jewish traditions, routine life in a Jewish household, politics and geography of places I've only heard about. Thanks for blogging.

Oh these were lovely -- thank you! I felt as though I'd visited there before breakfast.

Oh, you make me want to revisit Tiveria. We were there two years ago... my cousins live nearby. We had fun swimming at Ginosar. So beautiful and peaceful there.

Thanks for participating in JPIX.
