Internet time has been pretty scarce, I expected to be able to update more! I can't even begin to explain everything that we've done the last couple of weeks, we have had so much information in such a small amount of time. This last week we have been touring the southern part of Israel. We spent about 15 minutes sitting in the Wilderness of Paran (where the children of Israel wandered for 40 years)... I can maybe see why there would be so much grumbling going on... it was hot! We went snorkeling in the Red Sea and enjoyed seeing the beautiful coral reef there. Yesterday we floated in the Dead Sea, easily one of the weirdest feelings I've ever had. Normal bodies of salt water have 3 or 4 percent salt content, the Dead Sea has something like 28 percent. Looking forward to being back and showing pictures!
