Candles in the Church of Elijah's Cave



























Our friend and bus driver, Ahmad




















View of Heifa through barbed wire



Tree near the Stations of the Cross



I have learned not to touch the dirty kitties....





Bags of grains and spices in the market







Dining hall used for the soldiers in the Crusades






Children on a field trip outside of a beautiful Mosque in Akko







Patterns on rugs in the market










Tiles marked by the years outside of a Mosque









The ladies were required to borrow shawls if they were not sufficiently covered












Statue of a bird in the streets of Haifa










Quest IP'ers relax on a whale in Haifa
















George Shalabi tells us about his personal history of the area













The view is quite alluring...














View from the roof of the MEEI building













The view is nice at night as well... but we would rather be in the town visiting with the people!

  1. I'm so glad to hear that your first full day went so well. I loved the colors and textures of your photos, but most especially the group picture on the whale! I could almost smell the spices and heat of the day from your photos and descriptions. Safe travels and blessings to all.
