Today was our free day and I signed up to go on a trip to go out in the desert four wheeling. I never imagined the desert could be so neat. We happen to be spending time in the same desert that Jesus wandered in for 40 days. One often thinks of sand when you say desert, but this was anything but. Cliffs, rocks, mountains, wadi's, vegetation, wild life such as Ibex and Camels, scorpions, lizards.....the desert is full of life and most often times se just don't spend enough time there to see it all. I was blessed with about 6 hours of high mountain desert and it was amazing. When you get out away from civilization and all you have is nature around you, the silence is deafening.
Good day!
Tomorrow we see Masada, which is what I have been waiting for, the Salt Sea (Dead Sea) and Qumran where the Dead Sea scrolls were found. Another day in the desert...YES!!
All I can say is WOW!! So neat! Glad you got to do this - Beautiful!!! :-)
