weather.yahoo.com now has extended forecasts that include our arrival weather in Israel. It looks really good. The temperature in Tel Aviv is forecasted in the 60's with sunny skies and 0% chance of precipitation.
Our arrival in Washington DC is a little different. The forecast calls for partly cloudy skies and intermittent rain with temperatures in the the 50's.
If we can get out of US without an incident it should be smooth sailing (or should I say flying) all the way!
Although we are only going to spend 1 day at the Dead Sea, there are 3 great sites to visit while we are there: Qumran where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found, En Gedi where David hid from Saul, and Masada.
There will be time to "frolic" in the Dead Sea if you wish or take advantage of the spa at our hotel. Don't forget about your purchase of Dead Sea products while we are there. Take advantage of the low prices you find.
To give you an example, 2 years ago I purchased Premier hand lotion at En Gedi for about 7 dollars US. In a kiosk at one of our local malls the same product was $29.00. Prices may vary with the value of the dollar, but you can expect very good prices.
Shalom for now. We're only a week away!
