The Golan Heights , Mt Hermon and a Medieval Castle
We went up to Mt Hermon the highest point in Israel . It is so hot and humid in the rest of the country right now , Mount Hermon is still enjoying cool weather .The slopes of Mount Hermon have some awesome hiking trails . Part of the area is classified as a military zone and that is very obvious when you get up to the top !!! We took the ski lift up and we were able to see far into Syria and Lebanon and Jordan. We stayed at this adorable Chateau in the mountains. Hard to believe there was patches of snow up there.
Heading back down on the Ski lift you can see Lebanon
Israel/Syrian Border (it was like hiking with armed gaurds)
Caden getting a closer look at Syria
Nimrods Fortress
A Medieval Castle from around 1229

Only FIVE weeks left?! Where will "home" be next?
Lord, Phoenix will seem soooo boring after all this adventure. You'll have to come visit me in exciting Tucson.
Home will be Gilbert, Az ! For a while at least: )
