Sea of Galilee

We drove our rental car east to the Sea of Galilee through Tiberias, Capernaum, swam at a kibbutz (commune). Drove around the "sea". Awesome day! Then came home and spent the evening with some of Lisa's friends. We also had a Thanksgiving dinner with everyone

An Unexpected Tour of Philly!

Our flight from Philadelphia to Zurich was canceled on Wed. eve, so we had an unexpected 27 hour layover as we waited for the next available flight to Tel Aviv. The airline put us up in a hotel and we had a day in Philadelphia...a fun adventure
