Another beautiful day has begun; we started it with a nice breakfast on the zimmer’s porch overlooking the Sea of Galilee. In every place we stayed we had a view of the sea!
While eating we saw a few Honey-Suckers flying by, attracted by the many flowers.Adds: Birthday Gift Ideas Kids Birthday Invitations General Birthday Invitations Free printable invitation templates
In the next photo you can see how our zimmer looked by day, with Thamara enjoying the hammock. In the back you can see our bikes tied to the porch.
Hexagon Pool
Then we left to another national park called ‘The Hexagon Pool’. Now that we had bought a yearly pass for all of Israel’s national parks we had a good plan for the rest of our honeymoon!
The Hexagon Pool is a unique creek and a natural pool made of hexagonal shaped rock. In the picture you see a view of Hexagon Creek and the Golan Heights before we went down into the valley. It’s about 20 minutes going down.
Then the creek is very close and you can see it nicely streaming. It’s amazing to see so much water in Israel especially after the hot summer.
When we reach the Hexagon pool we saw some people swimming in the cold water, later they were kind to take a picture of us together.
In these pictures you can see the unique hexagonal rock structure and shape.
Since it was on a Friday, we had to leave an hour earlier because the national parks close one hour earlier on Fridays. So we didn’t try to go in the cold water. Instead, we used the time we had left to see some more of the area.
We crossed the bridge over the Hexagon creek and started climbing up the mountain; it was a very steep climb. We were walking fast to see as much as possible Thamara’s leg was aching from a tennis injury but she had the desire to go farther. Eventually we reached this nice oak tree and headed back down.
On the way down we saw this snake hiding in the rocks.
Swimming In The Sea of Galilee
After the Hexagon pool we went to the Sea of Galilee for a swim. We found a beach where we could drive off the road to. We put on our bathing cloths and enjoyed the warm, peaceful water of the Sea of Galilee. It was so beautiful and relaxing.
We saw some nice clam shells, no pearls though.
We saw the sun going down.
Later we saw some fishermen boats going in for fishing. In this picture you can clearly see the city of tiberias on the other side of the Sea of Galille.Going back to the main road was scary since the road level was much higher then where we parked our car. We weren’t sure we’d make it without our car rolling over, then we were so relived that we made it
Dinner or Late Lunch
We went back to our zimmer got organized and got ready for a romantic dinner or maybe a late lunch since we hadn’t had time for lunch or maybe because our breakfast was more like brunch!
Later Ilan took a picture of Thamara cooking without her knowing about it.
In the next video Ilan tried to take a surprise video of Thamara preparing dinner, later she thought Ilan was just taking a picture.
When dinner was ready, we set the table lit a candle and enjoyed the nice meal Thamara had made.
