Now we try to have lunch, April 29




After the wineries, we looked for the sisters' restaurant in Shchenia - try to pronounce that! So Rani thought that the GPS was completely stupid and didn't follow it until Ben found the same directions on the map! Anyway, once we got there, we found out it has closed. The sisters are gone, and it is now a catering business. So then we turned around and went to an Arab restaurant in Cowcab in a gas station. It was actually next to the gas station and quite nice. Anyway, we ate a ton of delicious middle eastern food. So good! We stuffed ourselves and then went off to visit Agamon Hahula. Let me explain; it is in the Hula Valley where there used to be a big swamp that polluted the Lake Kineret: Galilee Lake. So starting in the 1950's the people started to dry out the swamp and return the area to a good natural habitat. So one can now go there and with your ticket drive a club car the 6 miles around the whole natural area and see all kinds of birds and plants and animals. It was really quite nice. We really had fun going all around and seeing the Pelicans, and Kingfishers, etc.
