More About Israel

On March 4th we went to Bet Shean to see a Roman archeology site. We started by going into the amphitheatre. It was really cool because if you went in to the stands and someone else went to the middle of the stage and they whispered, you could hear them! We then took some pictures and wandered over to where you could climb up to where the temple used to be. We then started getting obsessed with finding bits of old Roman pottery and glass. We even found a porcupine quill! We stayed up on the hill for a while and looked at some of the ruins of the temple that were there and also the view of the whole town. Then we went back down and stayed in the gift shop/food area while we waited for my grandpa(who, I forgot to mention was there, too)drew the amphitheatre. Then we went back to the kibbutz(otherwise known as a Jewish community)where we were staying with my great aunt Malka, great uncle Kloni and mom's cousin Elyakim who lived there. March 5th was Shabbat, so we rested for basically the whole day. On March 6th we went to see where my mom's cousin works, at a cow farm. We saw them machine-milking the cows and afterward, a three day old calf, two other calves and two cute, fluffy puppies. We left the next day to come back to London.
