Today we left out home away from home for the last 4 days in the Alon Tavor Field School and headed up to the northern point in the western Galilee to Rosh Hanikra. Rosh Hanikra are grottoes that have been formed by the sea and we had the chance to walk around the caves and seeing the waves crash against the rocks. We learned about the area, chatted with an Israeli soldier who patrols the area and saw the beautiful view from the top. From there, we went into the old port of Acco and had (what is supposed to be) some of the best hummus in Israel and it lived up to the hype with the line out the door of the restaurant. We then toured around the Old City of Acco before heading to our next destination where we relaxed and had another special Shabbat service led by students followed by a delicious Shabbat dinner.
