Migdal!
Yesterday we visited the land my mom inherited in Migdal (the primary purpose for this trip).
The land had a great view of the Sea of Galilee, just like we were told. The area was slowly being bought up and turned into weekend or summer condos with pools and such.
We learned a few interesting things from our guide on the way. One was that Migdal is the older name for Magdalene, so Mary of Magdalene from the New Testament was from this area. The old city was down the hill closer to the water, but same general place.
We toured a little bit of the area after. Originally we were scheduled to visit the Golan Heights, however since there was a little border scuffle earlier this week we opted to skip that part. Our guide was totally willing to go, had we wanted to.
