2016-02-26: next batch of Israel pix

We started the day with a delicious outdoor breakfast in a lovely new apartment that Arie's mom rented for us. The night before who should visit the restaurant where we were having dinner than Arie's sister, Iris, and her daughter who was just about to begin her obligatory army service, teaching Hebrew to other soldiers. After breakfast we hiked around the area and then made our way by car, on a very twisty road, up nearby Mt. Tabor to the Church of the Transfiguration.
