I didn't sleep as well last night as I usually do at home, but I still got up and took a nice walk this morning on the tayelet by the sea. Along the way, I found 4 friendly cats that I petted: a jet black one, a dark tabby, and two calicos, all lovely creatures.
After a delicious breakfast this morning here at the hotel and a short rest, we headed out for a drive around the North. First, we drove out to the Golani Junction, which has now been completely rebuilt as the Golani Interchange! From there, we drove north on highway 65, which is currently undergoing a major amount of construction to convert it from a 2-lane highway to a 4-lane freeway. The terrain is very hilly there, so this entails a LOT of work.
We also drove up the east side of the Hula Valley and then across and down to the Koach Junction, then up and down through Nakhal Dishon and on to the Birya Forest, just north of Tsfat. After enjoying the cool breezes blowing through the pines there, we continue to Khurfeish, where we had a wonderful lunch at our favorite Druze restaurant.
By then, David was exhausted, so we came on back to Haifa, and he has been sleeping pretty much ever since. I played games on my iPad, surfed the internet a bit, enjoyed some music videos on YouTube, and took another short walk.
As I write this, the daylight is fading, and I can see the lights on a large ship that is waiting out in the bay. Tomorrow, we go to David's appointment at Rambam and then start the long trip back home.
