Enjoying an ice cream in Teverya -I know it's none to inspiring, but it tasted good.
The end of my whirlwind ten day Birthright trip to Israel.
Click on the link to enjoy the pictures!
I don't think that the concepts here are as unique as those written about Jerusalem, nor the photos like those in Tzfas, but then again -what's so inspiring or beautiful about leaving Israel anyway?
Our last night in Israel we went to to Teverya (Tiberias), where we were to take a boat ride in the Kinneret . . . It turned out to be a party boat, with music, bongo drums and other entertaining things . . .
A wall in Teverya . . .
Sunday -the last day:
The morning -through a tree in Chispin where we spent Shabbos.
We traveled to Misgav Am, which featured a look into the Lebanese border . . .
An old lookout post -since replaced with more modern means of surveillance.
A speech from Arieh Ben-Yakov -"I'm a Jew that doesn't take no cr@p, from nobody! The day you stop killing me is the day you have peace!"
A look into El Adisseh -notice the yellow Hezbollah flag -for this I had to look into Lebanon? I see them in 770 already.
A U.N. base -You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Before I left I snapped a photo, with my fingers sticking through the security fence -I hoped that they'd be in Lebanon . . . But truth they were in some UN controlled neutral zone (which I guess is really Lebanon anyhow)
""Life is better when you ride bikes"
In Katzrin we went to a winery -something that I've done before . . .
and we got to taste wine . . . Something I haven't done (Yes, obviously I've had wine, but . . .)
In the Katzrin . . .
An ancient synagogue . . .
And thus ended my trip.
Off to a kosher restaurant in Tel Aviv, Ben-Gurion, and a flight . . . home?
Letters . . . of Thoughts . . . in Zion.

I'm a bit perturbed by some of your pictures. Show them to your Mashpia and see what he says....
I'm also a little shocked you went for ice cream...
I thought it was the brown shoes.
