Israel

It's hard to believe that it's almost been one week since we left home! We've been in Israel for five days now and are having a fantastic time.

Kavan is happy and healthy! It's nice to see him with a bit of a tan, looking as he did prior to the chemotherapy. His eyebrows are almost completely grown back and the rest of his hair is slowly following. Sometimes he reminds me of a baby growing its first hair. Cute!

So far, we have spent time in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Tiberias, the Golan Heights, the Dead Sea and the Sea of Galilee. I have to say that Israel is a beautiful country! I could use some cooler temperatures though! It is amazing how the heat zaps your energy, it might just be me though, despite everything he's been through Kavan has a TON of energy. Not quite sure how he does it!

Here are some photos from our first five days in Israel!

Much to my happiness, Israel is a cat dream land!
