Aqueducts!

The rain has been unpleasant but human kindness has outweighed it by a ton. I've ran into several people who bought/offered me food, which could mean I'm looking pretty bad but I choose to believe that they're just nice people. I spent my last day on the beach a couple days ago and I'm chugging along towards the Galilee. I didn't have much luck with trail angels near Isfiya so I got a ride to Haifa and I'm now staying in yet another hostel. I'll be somewhere in between Nazareth and Haifa by the end of day provided I find the right bus out of here.

Got into Caesarea right around sundown, absolutely beautiful.

The aqueduct beach is one of my favorite places. I love that there's just this several thousand year old structure that's not only still standing but basically unprotected. You can climb on top of it and sit under most of the arches. It's wonderful.

You can just make out the beginning of a rainbow there on the left, it was beautiful. Goodbye beach!

Back in the mountains, there's been a couple strenuous uphill hikes after all that flat ground.

Love this terrain.

Seen a ton of cows, this must be cow country.

Yet another dry river bed, I'm getting tired of these even if they are cool, they're no fun to hike up.
