Masada at sunrise-very early Shabbat am (day 6)

Awakened at 3:45 am to head to Masada and up the snake path. This was so much easier when I was 20, and even at 31. 20 years later, well, not so much. But watching the sunrise was perfect. 

Ariana says I'm cheesy but listening to the story, I couldn't resist being impressed with the resilience of the Jews and their standing up for their beliefs and resolve to avoid becoming property of the Romans. 

  Jeff , with his typical humor, wrote another limerick! 

We woke up to go climb Masada
We learned about the Jews and their armada
The Jews with their might
Put on a courageous fight
And the Romans turned and headed to water
