Jilaboon | Shorashim - Israel with Israelis

Jilaboon

After managing to squegee all the excess water down our shower drain, the 46 of us gathered for a delicious Israeli breakfast. We then left the Kibbutz and made our way through the Golan Heithgs to a very important stream and canyon, the Jilaboon. Manny enjoyed the abundance of cows alog the way, free to rome the roads and the trails. Slava, our bus driver, expertly navigated the swarm of cows placed in our way. As we took our first steps in a series of hikes, Dikla our tour guide filled us with all kinds of information about the things we passed along the way. We explored the ruins of an old Syrian military base, left over from the Six Day War. It was hard not to be amazed at the Jilaboon's natural beauty, the breathtaking waterfalls, and the company of our new found friends in our amazing group, Bus 394.
