Oh, my sweet Mahroum's!! Never have I tasted so many delectable varieties of warm honey-soaked sweets! Baklava with cashews or almonds or pistachios or dates or all of the above!

My last meal in the city of Nazareth, making it's mark as the forefront of fine dining and fusion cuisine in Israel, was one of the best salads I have ever eaten, with pomegranate seeds, raw cashews, and sweet, juicy peppers with fresh lemon and olive oil

This sign seemed to cause a lot of murmuring from passing tourists as they first enter the Arab town, however can it really be any more exclusionary than "No man cometh unto the father, but by me?"

My next destination was Tiberias on the shore of Lake Kinneret, Israel's primary water source, better known as the "Sea of Galilee."

Repeated attempts to walk on water on the Sea of Galilee were unsuccessful.

Tiberias is a dirty, tacky lakeside town. The only redeeming scenery to be had are the buildings that make up the Scots Hotel.

From Tiberias, I took the bus to Haifa, on Israel's northeast coast. Beautiful city! This unique, modern building was about two blocks from my hotel, so it served as a helpful landmark.

I loved riding on Israel's only subway, the Carmelit, which goes from the port to the top of Mt Carmel in Haifa. It was more like an underground funicular, as it went straight up.
