Another beautiful day has begun and we enjoyed a nice breakfast. During our honeymoon we started practicing our cooking skills, which was also a great experience.
Arbel
We left to Tiberias to deposit our gifts, on the way we past by Arbel cliffs which are on the western side of the Sea of Galilee. Arbel is about 400 meters above the Sea of Galilee, used to be populated in ancient times and has a great view of the area. In the picture you can see the many caves where people used to live, and a cactus full of sweet fruit full of tiny thorns.
Tiberias
In about 30 minutes we reached Tiberias, we found a bank and finished with our business arrangements and went to eat a nice falafel for lunch. Falafel is one of the most popular Israeli foods; it’s like round chickpea burgers with salad and t’hina (known as tahini) plus other tasty and spicy things altogether in one pita bread, yummy! In Tiberias there are some streets where all the shops sell falafel (big competition!), in every street the price is different.

Biking Along The Sea of Galilee
We saw some places around Tiberias and then we unloaded our bikes for the car and went on a nice ride along the Sea of Galilee. As we were riding we found a new bike path surrounding the southeastern side of the Sea of Galilee. It was great riding surrounded by eucalyptus trees and banana groves. Ilan took this next video while riding his bicycle, he almost crashed though.

Then the bike path suddenly ended, so we went closer to the Sea of Galilee close to a banana grove. The water was a little rough and the sun was going down, then we had a nice ride back to our car, loaded the bikes and went down town Tiberias to buy some groceries.
What a beautiful smile!
