Last Wednesday October 7th, about fifty elderly citizens left solitude and boredom behind at home and hit the road together with “Kibarouna” NGO members ,to enjoy a trip to the North of Lebanon. They all  looked forward to  good company  and homemade food.

The group first stopped by our Lady of” Nouriye “ and from there headed toward the “Benashi” lake. But most of their day was spent on the wholly premises of  ” Um Al Marahem”  in Miziara where they had lunch on a  lovely terrace ,overlooking the green olive trees of Koura and the deep blue sea of Tripoli.

Their voices raised sometimes with prayers and other times with laughters over stories from the present and the past.

As the sun was setting in the horizons of Lebanon, our elderly friends made their way back home, but this time with exciting stories, from the day, to share with their loved ones.
