After walking up to the Temple of Pan at Banias Nature Reserve we hiked down to the Water Powered Flour Mill.   The walk was gorgeous.  We had fun looking at the various plants and trees.  It was especially fun to notice the fig trees, just seemed right!  We were there!  Had to get a… [continue reading]

Banias Nature Reserve and the Temple of the god Pan

Our second full day of touring in Israel began at Banias Nature Reserve in the Upper Golan between the fertile Hula Valley and Mount Hermon.  Banias is full of both natural and historical beauty.  If you are like me, when you pictured Israel you thought dessert.  While there is desert areas I had no idea… [continue reading]

Capernaum, The Town of Jesus

After visiting what is believed to be the site of the Sermon on the Mount, we headed to Capernaum, you know, the town of Jesus!  This place is amazing and I only wish we had, had more time here.  We saw so much on that first full day of touring that I felt like we… [continue reading]

Site of the Sermon on the Mount

After a super fun lunch of St. Peter’s Fish, we drove to the Mount of Beattitudes or Mt. Eremos.  This is the view as you first walk into the area.  Mt.

St Peter’s Fish Migdal Restaurant

There is so much I love about traveling, but food is very high up on my list.  From the time I mentioned we were going to Israel, the one food most mentioned to me that I needed to try was St. Peter’s Fish.  After walking through the Basilica of the Annunciation, we walked back to… [continue reading]

The Ancient City of Nazareth

As we came out of the Basilica of the Annunciation, many were standing around waiting for the rest of the group to make their way through and out of the church.  I noticed a few people looking down over a railing and walked over.  “What is this?” I asked my husband. And then I saw… [continue reading]

Basilica of the Annunciation

Toward the end of the infamous walk through the streets of Nazereth, we came to The Basilica of the Annunciation.  According to Roman Catholic tradition, this is where Mary’s annunciation took place.  I have to laugh at myself because before the trip and even up until we arrived at the churches I was still wondering,… [continue reading]

Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation in Nazareth

After a long flight, adventurous tour bus ride, arriving at our Kibbutz Haon Guest house, sampling amazing Israeli food, and a good night’s sleep, we set out on our first day of touring.  How exciting to step out onto the streets of modern day Nazareth!  Our first stop was the Greek Orthodox Church of the… [continue reading]

Kibbutz Haon Dining

Our fist meal in Israel was at the Kibbutz Haon Dining room where we would be eating breakfast and supper each of the three days we were there.  You know how I love food and especially trying different ethnic foods!  I could not wait to EAT in Israel!  The beautiful fresh breads were the first… [continue reading]

Kibbutz Haon Guest House on the Sea of Galilee

“What is a kibbutz?” was the main question I had after the first time I read over the itinerary after we purchased the trip.  That’s right AFTER.  I think we glanced at it and bought it.  All I knew is that it was a tour of Israel and that was good enough for me!  … [continue reading]
