Hello

Hi everyone,

I am writing from Israel again. We have been staying in a holiday resort on the shores of the Sea of Galilee for the past few days so I have not had a chance to go on the internet. The resort was very nice, great food, big rooms and a great view of the Sea of Galilee from our bedroom window.

This is a few places that we have gone to over the last few days.

On a boat on the Sea of Galilee, we learnt about fishing on the sea in Jesus' day.

Tel Aviv: one of the largest city's in Israel. We went there on a train on our free day.

Behorn Ridge

Caesarea: a place that Herod built that faced Rome.

A place with warm springs that people swam in. We had lunch there. Some people think its the Garden of Eden, it was very beautiful.

We went down to the Jordan river and one person from our group jumped in, but it was freezing so we wisely stayed out.

Lots of other places, like ruins of places that Herod built, or just old ruins that were from Jesus' time, lots of lookout places that we can go out on and have a 360 degree view of different places of Israel.

Tomorrow we have a free day. Then for the few days that we have left we are doing different sort of field trips, but we will stay at the hotel in Jerusalem.

Well I better go as I am very tired. We have been getting up at about 6 to 6:30 every morning, and then playing Mafia as a group at night. So as a result I am very tired, but as our guide said, "Make the most of your time while your here, you can sleep on the plane back home."

Anna-Marie.
