Last month, it was time for another enrichment tour for guides, which we have to do each year in order to keep our license up-to-date. We focused on a fascinating but lesser-visited site in the Shephelah known as Khirbet Itri, which features remains from the Second Temple period and the Bar Kochba Revolt. It can be combined with other fascinating sites in the area such as Lakhish and Azekah and Tel Gezer. Get in touch to book your tour!

This week I had the great pleasure, for the second time, of helping people renew their wedding vows. This time it was two couples from Canada at the Wedding Church in Cana, the traditional site for Jesus turning water into wine. We also had a great day visiting the other major Christian sites in the north. Mazel Tov to the happy couples!
