The Holy Land Trip
Day 5
March 11, 2019
On Saturday we took a trip to Masada and ascended by cable car to the ruins of the fortress where Jews made their last stand in Judean revolt against Rome AD 70-73.
Then we will continue alongside the Dead Sea, which has no waterway outlet, thus got its name. It is the lowest spot on earth, some 1,300 ft. below sea level.
An interesting place to see will be a waterfall in the desert.
That afternoon we continue to Qumran and the caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found. I may stick my big toe into the Dad Sea, just because.
The ruins of Jericho, which is the world's oldest city is on our itinerary, will be a place to take pictures, I'm sure.
After a full day of site seeing, we will head up to Jerusalem for dinner at the hotel. Don't miss the Steps to the Temple and the Southern Wall tomorrow.
Certainly, we are going up to Jerusalem to worship.
