The Dead Sea!

We are getting near the end of our Israel trip, in my gradual telling on this blog.  There's only a couple more days to show, though that may take me a little while.  After we left Masada we headed back up the coast of the Dead Sea to the free spot where anyone can swim.  It had a bit of a European flair with people changing into bathing suits on the beach.

Shannon, John and I went in - Charlie kept guard over our things.

We're floating!  In stinging slimey water!  What fun!

We were very grateful for the rinsing showers

Some fellows collected some of the famous dead sea mud.  Shannon and I were not all that interested.
On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it east to the Dead Sea and half of it west to the Mediterranean Sea, in summer and in winter.  Zech 14:8
