Another Famous Body Of Water

A bit bigger and a lot saltier!

First, play the video…even if it looks upside down right here.

And here are some of our group “getting their float on” at The Dead Sea. You’re instructed to walk out to about your knees, sit down and then just lean back. It’s actually very easy, and fun!

Before you ask…yes, I did float too. The pics of me and my buddy, Gayle Teague are on her husband’s memory card and we can’t get to them until we return home. Perhaps that’s a blessing, no bathing suit photos at this time!

We’ve already seen and learned so much, Tomorrow, we visit Jericho and the site of Jesus’ baptism. Then we turn our attention to the final days of Jesus’s life as we head into the gates of The Old City Of Jerusalem! Thanks for following along. I am reading all the comments between stops on the tour bus!

  1. What was the Shabbat like? Was most business closed? Remember, no matter how safe you feel, always stay with your group.

  6. I’ve never laughed so hard as I did while floating in the Dead Sea. I ventured out and literally could not stand up without the assistance of my friends. All of us ended up throwing our Dead Sea clothes away…the next morning they were literally a pillar of salt. I can’t wait to read your thoughts on the Via Dolorosa. All 13 stations are so emotional.. Love sharing the trip again through your eyes.

  8. Enjoying reading your blogs. Awesome experience. From another Pine Bluffian. My husband Eugene Wright & your brother in law Steve roomed together their first year at Fayetteville. Also went to Pine Bluff High together. They were the class of 1977.
