Masada & Dead Sea

Our third day here and we decide to venture out to Masada and Ein Gedi. I cannot claim to be a historian but from what I gathered, Masada is where the Jews defended themselves from the Roman siege for a couple of years. What’s amazing is how desolate the area is and how the Jews could defend themselves and survive while being cut off from outside supplies during the siege.

This is a view of Masada from the Roman Ramp.

This is wifey and big baby eating breakfast on Masada.

The sun heats up rapidly in the day it was blazing by mid morning. Next on the itinerary is a visit to Ein Gedi Spa, one of the many resort spas along the Dead Sea. This is a family photo with wifey clad in mud.

This is Big Baby Cool (she’s actually sulking because she missed her nap time.
