This was actually taken at the end of the trip in Jerusalem after our dinner on Ben Yehuda Street.  But it makes a good opener.

Soldiers gettin some Shwarma.  

Safed Candle store, where I bought some candles.

Some people making 'the first bread ever.'

It was really good.  Was like focaccia, but better. 

Going on an ATV ride in the north 

Amelia was my co-pilot.  We had a good ride!

And this is where we ended up, having coffee and tea overlooking the Hula Valley.  In the background are the Golan Heights

At the Canada Centre, hanging out, being tired

We went on a beautiful hike in the Golan

This is where we stopped to have coffee and tea made by or Israeli friends.  It was a great spot!

We stopped here too where a Syrian tank was upside down from the 1973 Yom Kippur war.  It is said the bones and soles of the Syrians are still trapped inside, and I believe it.  It landed upside down!!

Shook (Market) in Jerusalem.

Challah ready for Friday night Shabbat!  Delicious.
