Our Galilee trip was fantastic in every way (well, not counting Monica's broken arm).  Our 8-day trip included 6 nights at En Gev on the shores of the Sea of Galilee.  Still, it wasn't enough time!  What were the trip highlights?  Everyone seems to have different favorites, but here are a few pictures of the fun times we had.

 

Amy and Stacey jumped in for a swim next to Herod's harbor at Caesarea. Sarah stayed dry and watched the others.  From this angle it almost looks like she's standing on the water.

 

Anna's thing was to climb up and down the modern harbor walls. That night at our hostel on Mt. Carmel, we played cards.  Jake deals out a game.

 

One of the games we played was "Spoons."  You can tell that Kim had quicker hands on this one. Over in another corner, Josh and Andrew played guitar together while others sang along.

 

Our second day ended with a spectacular view from the Arbel Cliffs.  Then we climbed down Arbel.  This is a view of the steepest part of the climb.

 

This is nothing for these guys.  In case you're wondering, the guy with the sexy legs is Preston.  Pat, Josh and Wendy are more subdued. Brett and Leo reach for the footholds as they climb down.

 

When we got to the bottom, Megan and Kim were the first to grab the driver's seat of the school van.

 

Josh and Grace sat together on the Galilee trip.  This means nothing, ya know. :-) Brian and Kim here enjoy the bus ride across the Golan Heights.  Brian likes to type his notes up on the bus rides.

 

Luke and Jake found a comfortable place to sit in the synagogue at Corazin.

 

Killer sunset on our way back to the lake from the Golan Heights. They all begged to stop to get a picture and so we did.
