Our Kinneret (Sea of Galilee)

by Martin_S. - last update: Jun 29, 2005

Lake Tiberius (Kinneret), Israel
We came over the crest of the hill to the west of the Kinneret and this is the sight that greeted us. In Israel, the Kinneret is the largest body of fresh water by far, located in the north east just below the Golan Heights.
Zohar and Tal in Kinneret, Israel
One of the reasons we come is for the camping and swimming, just to spend a few lazy days laying in the sun or playing in the water, you can see that Zohara and Tal are enjoying themselves.
Tiberius at night, Israel
Took this shot of the city of Tiberius, on the west shore of Lake Tiberius, or the Kinneret as it is called in Israel.

 Hello Martin, it's many years since I lived in Tiveria - I spent 4 and a half years in the town from 1978 - 1982. The town was small and friendly then and we all knew one another. Now of course it must have changed beyond comparison.
