Israel was just an absolutely amazing and beautiful place! The people were extremely friendly, the culture is strong and the country was just spectacular. One thing that I thought was Interesting about most of Israel was that any place that might be important to the life of Jesus there is a church built over the site so there are many churches all over the place. These pictures are of Nazareth and the area of the Sea of Galilee.
