Day out and About

This is a view toward Haifa from Hai Bar Carmel, a nature reserve on Mt Carmel. Hai Bar Camel's primary function is breading and releasing into the wild animals from the region who were hunted to extinction in the last century.

This is believed to be the location of Jeroboams Golden Calf in Dan.

After the Six Day War, military equipment was just left where it sat. 

These are some old military trenches.  The mountain range that you see in the distance is in Lebanon.

Abraham supposedly went through this gate.  It is the Canaanite gate to the city where Dan conquered. 

Ruins from Dan

We visited a chocolate shop on our way home.  In general, Israeli chocolate isn't good, but this place does make a decent chocolate.  It isn't Belgium or Swiss by any means, it is more like Cadbury in quality, so not quite worth the 4.5 NIS ($1.30) per praline price.
