Lebanon Summer Trip, chapter 5: Harissa

One sunny perfect day in Lebanon, we drove to Jounieh, and took Téléphérique from the sea up to the Harissa Lady of Lebanon Church way on top of the hill.

The Téléphérique ride was steep!
 Going up.
 Jill with the Mediterranean Sea behind her
 Rising above Jounieh
 Looking south toward Beirut
 A hazy view on the ride up
 Bella at the top
 Rosie and Bella with Jounieh below
 The Harissa Lady of Lebanon Church way on top of the hill
 Mary with open arms looking down from the mountain on her believers
 The circular stairs wind up and around the church up to Mary.
 My lady of Lebanon enjoying the view
 The view to the north
 Stunned by the incredible trip and full of ice cream, we headed down 
Looking back up the mountain
From the bottom without a zoom, you see how far up 670 meters can be
