Day 7 - “and relax...”

Today we had a fun day with very little biblical/scriptural input, but ticked many of those “must-do”boxes while in the Holy Land...

Our first stop today was Masad -the site of an ancient fortress, and a place where we learnt more about Herod the Great as well as getting some fantastic views over the Dead Sea.  In case you’re wondering, the black line in some of the photos indicates reconstruction work - above the black is rebuilt, below the black is original excavation.








After lunch at Qumran we saw the site of the caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered



We then had a float in the Dead Sea while Suzie took photos of us individually...individual pictures will be made available to the group on return to the U.K...



I then bumped into this bunch of lowlife...



I can honestly call them that - see!



So I decided to join them!
