Have a second look

We make trips in Israel for about half a century.
Sometimes by car and sometimes walking.
During the years we discovered, that to see the most interesting things, you often have to give places a second look.
Go down some path 200 metres and you'll find a mountain full of wild tulips.
Drive on a side road and you'll find fields covered with Lupines.
Where are these places?

In northern Israel near Kibbuts Kfar Gil'adi east of road 90 close to the road leading to the quarry, just behind some huge sculptures made of natural rocks, you have to start climbing and during the right season, you'll see wild tulips like these:


If you take from there roads 90, 99 to road 918 near Kibbuts Gonen you'll find fields covered with Lupines:

Most flowers can be found in springtime, after that in summer, all fields become dry and get yellow-brown.
