We are in lovely downtown Arad tonight. We've spent a bit of a southern Israel wilderness day. Walked around deserted Qumran by the Dead Sea. Where the Dead Sea Scrolls were created & hidden away. They changed the Bible the most in the 20th century.
Site of Cave 4 where significant Scrolls found.
Then we were on to Herod's fortress palace at Masada. Quite a dig. Ha. Important for several reasons. You can google it. Lot more rocks with a great view. Take the cable car ride up.
View from the fortress. Quite a view. Of rocks. Very hard to overtake.
Then down to the Dead Sea for a dip. Lowest largest lake on planet. Lots of Russian tourists & hotels. I did not swim. Many did. Some for 5". It was cold. 50. I know you got it much worse.
Two pictures tell it. First, a few get in.
Now notice beach wear for those who didn't.
Many other stories. We bond with each other, with natives & guests, and with God of course. Till next time. Shalom & Salaam! - Steve P
