Shabbat Shalom from up North! Today began with a visit to the Mount Arbel Cliffs in the Lower Galilee. The cliffs overlook the stunning Sea of the Galilee (Kineret). We hiked from top of the mountain to the cliffs where we scaled the mountain wall using a system of ladders and metal railings. As we hiked down the rest of the trail, we explored an ancient fortress inhabited by the Maccabees who battled against Herod the Great. We also stood in the same spot where Mark Twain in 1869 described the Lower Galilee as "dreary and despondent; sitting in sackcloth and ashes" whereas today it is lush and green. We read from the prophesies of Ezekiel who foresaw how the land would grow for its people, and we learned how in 1882, with the First Aliya and the modern return of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel, the land, in fact, began to bloom.

Lunch was eaten Tiveria overlooking the Kinneret Lake and some students opted to visit the kever of the Rambam.

Our move to northern Israel has restored the needed calm that accompanies the Machon Maayan experience.

Our hearts and prayers are certainly still with the people in the center and south of the country but we are truly happy that we can provide your children with a tension-free, educational, and enjoyable experience in the north.

Have a wonderful shabbat and may we experience true peace in Israel.

With the current challenging climate in Israel, we made the decision to relocate our students to the Hodayot Youth Village up north. We’ve kept spirits high and had lots of fun with yummy meals, swimming on the beaches of Tiveria, music jams, and so much more. We are so grateful to the incredible youth village that has shown what Am Echad truly means!

Yesterday we began our optional Pesach break glamping trip. Today we climbed a beautiful mountain near Bet Shemesh covered in wild flowers, Tel Socho. Next we visited the stalagmites and stalagtite cave and saw Hashem's beautiful art work. Sophie led the girls in a paint activity at sunset on our camp ground.
