In August 2009 my father and I made a trip to the Galill (Israel) and we also went to the Hula national park, close to Kfar Blum, where Shoshanna and Felix had lived in their time in Israel. It was of big importance for Felix to save this area, in which many migrant birds take a rest. This is the street to the entrance of the national park:

One can take a tour through the national park and watch the unique fauna (water buffaloes, cobras, egrets and other birds):
