Much of our traveling across Israel was done by bus.   The country is about the size of Rhode Island, so the travel times were not excessive.

While driving down the main street in Haifa, you can see the Baha’i temple.    Haifa is the third largest city in Israel and the largest city in northern Israel.

At the end of the main street is the Baha’i temple.    The Baha’i religion originated from the Moslem religion hundreds of years ago.   It is not considered part of the Moslem faith and the Baha’i followers were persecuted by the Moslems, so they moved their headquarters to Haifa.

From the top of Mount Carmel (where Elijah defeated the prophets of Baal)  is an overlook of the city of Haifa and the Mediterranean Sea.

Looking down at the Baha’i temple and the temple grounds, you can see the beautiful landscaping.   Bushes and grass are hand cut with scissors.

After heading east from Haifa, we stopped in a Druze village for lunch.  The Druze are also Arabs, but they are not Moslems.    The Druze are proud to be Israelis and they serve in the Israeli armed forces.
