We’ve visited a number of small communities that have reminded us of home but spent the night in the guest house of a Kibbutz (cooperative community).  It was a lovely place very quiet and peaceful.  They are very good at what we like to call reduce/reuse/recycle.  You’ll see what I mean.  On the way north we stopped in a nature reserve called Ein Afek and ended up in Tzfat where we’ll be spending a few days quietly relaxing.
