Tour of Golan Heights (Sunday 19 June 2022)

I booked a day tour to the Golan Heights for today. It's a place that I've wanted to return to, but it's quite a trip and I hadn't figured out how to do it on my own. It was small group (8) in a small bus. It was great. We saw several tank battle memorials from the Yom Kippur War, and the vistas were spectacular. There are extinct volcanos on the Golan Heights, lots of agriculture, and we had lunch on top of Mt. Beten, one of the volcanoes. You can see the Syrian border (easily), Mt. Hermon (in Israel,  where there's skiing in the winter, and the Sea of Galilee.
