Day 197 Haifa, Israel (Part 1 of 2)

It was a fairly overcast arrival into the port of Haifa this morning but fortunately, the conditions improved immensely making for a perfect day….  We had the same group and driver from yesterday and we were all eager to get out new adventure started.  We began with a panoramic tour of the beautiful Baha’i Gardens in Haifa and then headed to Nazarath to see the Church of the Annunciation which was magnificent!  Then we went off to the River Jordan Baptismal site, taking in the sights along the way.  We then headed off to the Sea of Galilee where we had lunch at the Ein-gev Kibbutz…..  After lunch we visited Capernaum, the house of Peter and then on to the Mount of Beatitudes….  It was a pretty full day with lots of holiday traffic.  All in all, it was a fabulous visit to Israel…..
