With Passover comes spring, a sleepy Chol HaMoed day in a Jewish town in Israel...


Though Israel is described as densely populated, unlike some parts of the U.S. green vistas are always just a short distance away.


Everywhere you turn in the Holy Land, the old mixes with the new. The hills are covered with towns of 500, 1000, even 2,500 years ago near which Jewish towns of today blossom among the green-for-spring hills of Israel.


The land is very beautiful, if one stops the car long enough to see it! Moadim l'Simcha, a Good Chol HaMoed Passover to everyone!
