Abraham and the Dead Sea

After a short camel ride with Eliazer, Abraham welcomed us to his tent with sweet tea, Turkish coffee and dried fruit. We also prepared some wood fired pita bread. Abraham told us his history of how he came to the Judean desert and his epiphany about monotheism and the folly of idol worship.

Ended the day at Mineral Beach on the Dead Sea for some mud and a mineral soak.

Yesterday we did the Temple Mount sifting project with the Rembrandts.  Someone made a rare find of a slingshot projectile, tear drop shaped and made of lead, probably around 2000 years old.  Some amazing stuff they are finding in the rubble.
