| Over looking the Dead Sea. Doesn't our skin look years younger? Before we went to the Dead sea we visited the Jordan River were it is believed to be the site of Jesus' baptism and then we had to cross the border into Israel. It was grueling and I told Scott he better enjoy this trip cause we were never coming back. |

Amazing! I love seeing the Halvorsens and McMillans in the pictures too. I'm looking forward to seeing more from this dream trip!
Wow, what an adventure. And I recognize some of your friends! It looks like you had a fun time! Jealous.
It looks like you guys found the good, black mud and you do look younger, but that might be because of the hike up to the monastery as much as the Dead Sea Treatment.
