Caesarea

Caesarea Caesarea - oh quite the respite after the intense heat of the Dead Sea, Masada, and Jerusalem! The turquoise waters splashing against the rocks took my breath away. Lucky we didn't go here first, as I might not want to leave. 

I've been to Athens, Rome, and the Roman ruins along the Spanish coast, but none had the whole enchilada in such a small microcosm. The theater, , hippodrome, and amphitheater all together right on the water! Looking at the hippodrome I could imagine Kirk Douglas and Charleton Heston racing and fighting on their chariots!

And the food was great as well. Large pizza, one liter of soda, tea and a 1/2 liter of gelato for only 106 nis!
