Indiana Shosh and the Temple of Awesome

Just kidding there was no temple. But I did feel like I was in an Indiana Jones movie yesterday.  I went hiking in the Negev desert with Sergiu, Ilan and Ziv.  We went to a big crater and hiked these amazingly old trails and ate matzah and nutella at the top of the peak.  Can't really get any better than that right?

So wrong.  We went to natural pools in the crater and watched as crazy people jumped in the freezing water.  We then hiked up another peak, which entailed some rock climbing and dodging of scorpions.  Okay, it was only one scorpion, but still....  We ate lunch with a swiss army knife under the shade of a ridge that looked like a dinasour spine.  I'm sure you're asking who is writing this, let alone doing this, but I assure you it's all me.  Crazy, I know.

We later grabbed some gleeda (ice cream) and played in the colored sand.  There were mounds of red, purple, yellow, and white sand and kids running around with babookim (bottles) making sand art.  Ziv made a really nice one.  Mine ended up full or rocks so I gave up.

Overall it was a fantastic day.  The sunburn doesn't matter, it was a total blast scorpions and all.   Pictures  here!

Latraot!
