Israel - Day 14

We started the day today at Capernaum. Here we were able to see how people in Jesus' time would have ground grain in order to make bread. We also sat in the synagogue at Capernaum which was built in the 2nd or 3rd century over the synagogue in which Jesus conducted much of His ministry. After that we stopped by Chorazim for a quick stop. After lunch we boarded a boat and cruised across the Sea of Galilee to a museum on the north shore of the sea. After watching a short video in the museum we were able to see a boat that was discovered about 25 years ago that dates back to the time of Christ. After that, it was back to the hotel followed by a quick dip in the Sea of Galilee and some rest.
