7:30 AM: Breakfast at hotel in Nazareth.
8:30 AM: Onto the Coach. Packed up to stay the next two nights in Tiberias - on the Sea of Galilee.
LANGUAGE: Why is it called the SEA of Galilee? Is it a Sea? Actually, no. It is a lake. It is fresh water. Well, in the Aramaic language, there is no word for lake to refer to a body of water. Only SEA.
It is also called Lake Gennesaret and Lake Tiberias.
9:15 to 10 AM: Parked the coach. Men went to grocery store to acquire food for lunch (hummus, meat, cheese, water, pita bread, etc...our typical lunch is grocery store bought and made on the coach while on the road or in parking areas).
10:30 AM: Mass at the Mount of Beatitudes. Had about 45 minutes available to be on the grounds following Mass.
