The Sabbath

The Jewish Sabbath began abt an hour ago. The resort keeps things going for the tourists. We're abt to give in to jetlag and go to bed.
Today was good--seemly more mellow than yesterday. We started the day in capernaum, Jesus' hqtrs for most of his ministry. It has apartially rebuilt synagoge, acorss the strret from which stands the stone walls of wha( was said to be Peter's house. Got some good pics of Kris reading his bible in the synagogue, where it was said that Jesus taught with authority, not like the scribes.
From there we drove north to Tel Dan, missing our turn and almost ending up iin Lebanon. Fortunately, the Isra2lis have huge border crossing barricades which told us "you are lost, not smart Americans, go back, etc".
We finally found Dan, the platform where Jeraboam place the golden calf, and most intriguing of all, the springs flowing out of Dan to form the Jordan River. Nearby is ceasarea phillpl or the temple to Pan area. Appa3ently, pointing out the pagan gods to his disciples, jesus ask the. "who do you think I am?". Peter got it right when he answered, "you are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
From there, we drove home along the golan heights, amazed by all the shelled out, bullet ridden buildings along the way. There had been a fight there.
Anyway, we made it home--fought off jetlag til this momen. Zzz
