Today’s adventures began with a short drive through the Golan Heights to the destination of a unique Yom Kippur museum on a special kibbutz where we saw an informative documentary. Afterwards, being very hungry we headed towards an interactive chocolate factory owned by Karina an Argentinian woman who is a third generation chocolatier.  We had the opportunity to create our own chocolates with various designs and fillings. Following this delicious treat, we ate lunch and went on an exciting hike for just over an hour to burn off our chocolate calories. With breathtaking views of the Gamla waterfall, we enjoyed taking photos and socializing with our peers. As the sun began to set, we boarded the busses and made our way to an olive pressing factory which manufactures the finest quality olive oil in Israel. We tasted a variety of olive oil products including substances with food and cosmetics. We were advised to bring a small amount of money to buy some “healthy” products at the local supermarket. Due to the fantastic Israeli service, we waited in the cues for approximately an hour and a half for the broken cashiers to be repaired. What a fun way to end such an eventful day. We’re off to pack our suitcases as we head off to Tel Aviv for one night tomorrow.
