For SkyWatch Friday, here is the sky over Sea of Galilee and the Golan Heights, seen from a moving bus as the road winds down toward Tiberias. The city's elevation (or lack of it) is about 690 feet below sea level..
I was down there doing archaeology since Sunday.
Today I came home to my computer and back to the pleasures of blogging.
Shabbat shalom to you all.

Beautiful! Great blue color of the sea.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.-)
Shalom
Great picture - thanks!
ReplyDeleteHope your archaeology work is going well. It's fascinating to read what archaeologists have found and are finding in Israel.
Shabbat shalom to you too - you probably need some rest - I imagine working at an archaeology site can be tiring, but rewarding, work.
I almost went into the archaeology field as I've been interested in it since childhood. But, I can't take heat and have very fair skin so it's good I did not. Doing research in an office or museum would be great, but I couldn't take the field work in hot and sunny climates.

What a beautiflu slice of the world to see after coming back from work. What did you find?

This is a pretty color in the sky. It is also a nice photo of the area.
ReplyDeleteI was going to personally invite you over to see the blog post because I knew you would be interested. I looked high a low among Nazi photos for a picture of a Jewish dentist working in a concentration camp but was not able to find one. So you saw what I found.
The story is true and was and still is amazing to me also. Tell some of your friends about it if you think it is worthy.
I hope your work went well!
ReplyDeleteIt is so fascinating to think of cities below sea level. Makes me want to learn more geology — if it is below sea level, then what's stopping the sea from rushing in?
Nice travel and sight from the bus....maybe tiring too.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week-end Dina.
Hope you found some interesting artefacts! T'verya, many nice memories!
ReplyDeleteI have many fond memories of Yam Kinneret, but they didn't allow me on a Golan tour...
ReplyDeleteSo blue! THe name Galilee is so evocative...
ReplyDeleteShabbat shalom to you Dina.
Shabbat Shalom, to you, too, Dina!
