Rosh Hanikra to Kibbutz Bar Am

We had a great Shabbat in Tel Aviv. We spent time with Mommy's friends, Ori and Lea Melamed. Then we went to Lea's shop on Sunday to buy lunch. She made us fresh-squeezed orange juice, which I never had before. It was delicious!

We had lunch at the Jaffa Port, overlooking the ocean near Tel Aviv:

Then we drove up to Rosh Hanikra, on the border with Lebanon:

We rode on the steepest cable car in world to get from the top of the cliff down to the sea level.

Then we explored the grottos. These are naturally formed caves, made from water splashing against the rocks.

Then we went to Kibbutz Bar Am, where my cousin Shlomo used to live. I am named "Samuel/Shmuel" after him (and my grandpa's mom, Selma). Here is a picture of me next to Shlomo's grave.

Here is the tombstone:

Here are photos of Isaac putting rocks on the tombstone:

We went to the ancient synagogue at Bar Am, a cool archeological site!

 They had roosters running around there!

I like being in Israel.
