Fron the airport to the Sea of Galilee
Well we made it! We have arrived at our hotel the Nof Ginosar on the Sea of Galilee. It is a Kibbitz which originated in Russia (according to our host). Everyone here works for the Kibbitz, then the ibbitz provides for their needs…even down to the car they drive….sounds lie a commune to me. Our host also told us that Israel is pretty much self-sufficient…they don’t import any food except coconuts and pineapples. Also we all need to quit complaining about gas prices…..it is average of 8.00 a gallon here!!! Thats why they have smaller cars and many hybrids and electrics.
It 'was a 2 1 / 2 hour drive from the airport to the hotel, but darkness came on us about halfway. I got some good photos from the window of the bus. The earth is how I imagined it would be …. hilly, rocky dry but there are also some lush vegetation. After dinner we Waled the Sea of Galilee, which is right outside our hotel door … but it was dark. I got a good picture of the village on the hillside across the water … I hope to find his name tomorrow.
many traditional Middle Eastern dishes ….. the desserts were awesome. Everyone is pretty tired, but we were advised not to go to bed at once more trying to stay awake so that you sleep well tonight.
Some of the images are airportlast of the night and when we arrived this morning …. that was really this afternoon. As I write this it is 02:19 which is 9:19 at home here.
Tomorrow is a very full day … look forward to many images.
