21 July 2012

I got up a bit late this morning, so I only took a short walk and did a few stretches.

We decided to go up to the west side of Massada today, where we had never been before. We left the house before 9:00 and stopped to fill up the car with gas and get Pepsi Max to drink. We were out of town and on our way up the Arava not long after 9:00.

We drove up highway 31 from near the Dead Sea where the hotels are up to Arad. From there, we took a road whose only purpose, basically, is to go to the west side of Massada. The view is really interesting from that side, and quite different from the view on the east side, where people usually visit.

You can check out my blog post about it and see some of the pictures I took by clicking here.

We got back home before 4:30, so I had some time to work on my various blogs.
