Today we travelled to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea. Those of us who had never been to the sea before were very surprised at how easy it was to float in the salty water. The Dead Sea is the third saltiest place in the world, and sharp salt crystals made it difficult to even get in the water. The sea itself was so much warmer than the freezing Pacific Ocean, and it was a very nice swim for the Americans. The whole delegation spread mud from the sea all over their bodies, and, after a fast rinse-off, it was time to get on the bus and head back to Tel Aviv after a long two days.
