Beautiful | Shorashim - Israel with Israelis

We rose to the top and floated on the surface of the Dead Sea; rising to the top is a common theme of the day. 
 

It's hard to go to sleep at a reasonable time when you're having great conversations with great people.

I cannot put into the words how amazing this trip has been. I have learned more than I ever imagined learning about this beautiful country.

We then trekked up to the bus on a short and sweet climb up broken rocks that served as a natural staircase. It was beautiful.

We arrived at Mearat Keshet. The way we went through this site was absolutely beautiful.

The sky by night in this desert is as indescribable as the land by day. I saw more stars than I've ever seen in my life, and a meteor as well.

The hike to the waterfall was my favorite part of today. There were so many canopies full of more flowers than I had ever seen at once protecting streams beneath that were so captivatingly beautiful, it was hard to keep moving at times; all I wanted to do was stare and stare and stare. It's hard to think of a more blissful moment I've felt than floating underneath that waterfall, hearing only my breath and the sound of pouring water. I was with a group of people who took their time getting to the waterfall, but although we may have held up the group a bit, it was worth it. I have never shared more laughs or felt so inexplicably happy.
