Check back tomorrow

Howdy, Cyber-pilgrims!

The evening kind of got away from us today and we have a 5:00 AM wakeup tomorrow for Mass at the very place where Jesus was born. Today we went to Masada, the Dead Sea, Qumran and Bethany before making our way to Bethlehem.

Check back tomorrow for the update. In the meantime, here is a screenshot I took right on the shore of the Dead Sea. Note that we were 1410 feet BELOW sea level. This is the lowest place on the surface of the earth. Pretty darn cool.

Okay, here is another shot. I just couldn’t resist. And yes, the beer was tasty.

How low can you go? Beer is tasty at 1410 feet below sea level. At this “altitude”, because of the negative air pressure, the head is actually on the bottom of the beer. No, really!

One Reply to “Check back tomorrow”

  1. Ha. Ha. I need a visual on how that works out. More interesting: my house number is 1410. Does that give me permission to hang a keg from the ceiling?
