Pictures May 19-21

NOTE: For some reason, Blogger is posting my photos in reverse order. Still read them from top to bottom, because my descriptions won't make sense if you don't, but just know that they happened in the reverse chronological order from which they appear. Also, there really are no pictures that are notable from today, so I'll stop at the sea of Galilee and post most tomorrow night after our adventures in Tel Aviv.
