Matt & Steph - Day 6

Today was a bit more leisurely than the rest of the week. We went to Caesarea where Matt and Steph enjoyed more ancient Roman ruins for a couple of hours. We also made sure they went in the Mediterranean Sea so they can say they've been in "the Red, the Dead and the Med" on their trip to Israel. By noon we were on our way towards Abu Gosh close to where Matt spent a semester studying here in Israel about 6 years ago. He took us around the "moshav" and we saw an authentic olive press, wine press, and threshing floor. It was pretty interesting. For lunch we stopped at the "Elvis Inn". It looked like a 50's diner with a million pictures of Elvis everywhere. The food was actually not bad, and we got to listen to Elvis music while we ate. Our final destination today was Jerusalem. I drove them in and made sure they had a place to stay for tonight... now they are on their own. I'm sure they will be just fine. It was so fun to have them visit (even if it was a busy week).
