Many of us felt that the best day of the trip was the day
around the Sea of Galilee exploring the places of Jesus' ministry. There
are a lot of places where you can say, "He was here!" Some
examples: the synagogue of Capernaum, the "Cove of the Sower," and of
course on the waters of the lake itself.

Peter. |

On a free day the IBEX kids came out to play
on the beach. Here the two Lukes play in the sand. Looks
like Luke Bolen is having more fun :-). |

You must know that these 5 didn't build the castle.
Luke Bolen did his best to destroy it as it was being built. Daddy
Dix was the chief architect. From left to right: Zach, Luke Dix,
Rachel, Luke Bolen, and Claire Dix. |

On the last day of our Galilee trip we stopped by the
Jordan River to watch Jake be baptized by Randy. |

The last stop of the Galilee trip
was at Gan HaShelosha (Sachne). We played some keep
away/peg-the-other-guy-in-the-head. On the left Anna didn't care
whether Leo had the ball or not. On the right, Monica sports her
new cast. She broke her arm hiking the Nahal Yehudiyeh. |

Allison eyes who she can tag. The guys
agree: she is dangerous! |

Over on this side, the guys debate who has the most chest
hair. |
