Sunburnt and Sore: Skiing Faraya Mzaar
... been able to stay the night otherwise.
In the morning, we woke up around 7:00 and enjoyed a complimentary Lebanese breakfast. This consisted of the typical bread, labneh (a yogurt-like spread), eggs, raw vegetables, and loads of basil.

Going north
Meet Ely for lunch, then planning to see the National Museum.
