These next few pictures are at the border looking into Israel. The fence is the border, but about 30-40 on either side is laced with razor wire on the ground, along with mines that are buried. Needless to say, we did not get out of the vehicles and step into the grass. We stayed on the road.

Next up, pictures near Byblos, the world's oldest continually inhabited city.
