Another exciting day here in the Galilee region. We had a massive storm that came on the Sea of Galilee last night. Made us think of the disciples. The setting is just breathtaking.
Today we went to the following places today: Mount of Beatitudes, Capernaum, Nof Ginnosar, Yardenit Baptism Site.
This is "THE" exact synagogue that Jesus preached at in Capernaum. They rejected him in this town, even though He lived here. We also saw Peter's house right outside of the building. One of the rare places we "KNOW" is an authentic site. It was special to know that the Disciples hung out right near where we stood.
This is the beach were it is said that Jesus first called Peter and where he told Peter to meet Him after the resurrection. It was a special calming place.
I will post images and videos to the best of my ability but words can't really describe this place. Awesome!

I'm assuming you ate the famous "Peter's fish". When we went there, our group was given the choice of with or without the fish head. One proper lady was served "with" and told the waiter she had ordered "without" after which the waiter simply removed the fish head and gave it back to her. She was quiet after that. =] Don't remember if she ate her fish or not.
I hope the scales tasted good.
