Rumor has it that if you survive the Jerusalem Zoo at midday on Chol Hamoed, you are automatically inducted into the IDF Special Forces as an officer....

WOW...do you like hiking? there are plenty of that in the RBS/JLM area...in the golan there is a nice area called bustan hagalil with a petting zoo and chilled picnic area...it's also close to a boutique chocolate factory called de karina (google it) under the OK and Dayan Westheim though not sure what the pesach status is.

its a quick video/walk through tour of factory and then you get to make your own...not cheap but not too expensive...i saw a lot of families w/ kids doing it so it seems like it does the job...

A stunning place in Galil called Agmon Hachulah,
you can rent bikes or gulf carts to roam this picnic or bird watching park
