We did some kite photography. The first Palestinian Spy Satellite.

Former Israeli Military Post

Here’s the remaining military structures.

Was a military post, now a BBQ

Some of the BBQ area of the park.

The last photo, before it tumbled out of the sky

The wind was fierce, and the rig came loose, plunging 100 ft to the ground. This is the last photo that cheapo Canon ever shot.

I promise, more soon on the recent trip back to the West Bank.
