Sitting Looking Out into the Dead Sea

Finally got on the internet and thanks to a screw up from the hotel its free!! It is an awesome comfort from home to be able to see my Google home page. Today we bought fruit from Jericho and the the ruins (more like the dirt mount) from the original city that Joshua conquered. As well as the Dead Sea. Missed floating in Sea. We got to the hotel at 2:30. and I crashed till dinner at 7:00p. I was thinking it was the time change, but it's the lack of sleep. I've been averaging 5 hours or so.


Here are some of the picture of today. Hopefully I can upload them with no problem. I will try to post more picture when I get up to my room (I'm sitting in the bar right now with Mark, Med, and Michelangelo).

Stink! I'll try to add pictures again later!!

Only five hours of sleep?? That's got to be a new record for you Josh.

I understand how it goes though. You want to spend as much time as you can taking in the sights and the experiences and the only area to take time away from is sleep.

It's kind of a catch 22. You want to see and experience so much that you skip out on sleep. But the more you are awake, the more tired you get and end up missing something because you are too tired.

Great to hear from you! I've been refreshing my google page all day, plus my news reader updated on an hourly basis.

It's been great. I'm normally online at 1p-2p Phoenix time. Today was hard since the internet didn't want to work on my Mac today, but for what ever reason I'm on now.

When I first got here my AirPort was acting up and wasn't being recognized.

It's totally sweet and exciting. Much different then I excepted (well, depending on the part of the country we are in). And since we are in tourist locations, things cost an ARM AND A LEG!!!!!
