Balkanitsa Meeting in Hararit

On Saturday 6.3.10, we met in Hararit, in the home of Ruthie Pardess, a member of our dance group and a seasoned folk dance teacher herself. Hararit is located at the top of a hill in the Galilee and as we toured the area we observed the beauty of the Valley of Bait Netofa, Mt.Arbel and the Kinnereth – Lake of Galilee. We sang and danced, ate and drank and had much fun. It was an experience that will not be forgotten and we are very grateful to Ruthie and her husband Joe for their kind hospitality.
