Making our way up

After a couple nights in Sde Boker, we made our way north toward the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) for the rainbow gathering.

There are some signs on the highways in Israel that we don't see back home:



On our way up, we camped out by the Dead Sea and took a dip in the thick salty water. It was fun for a few minutes, until Asha accidentally went partially under the water and then screamed at the top of her lungs for a good half hour. Every single person on the beach glared at us with hatred and condemnation. I scanned the crowd for at least one sympathetic soul but none was to be found. Not so fun. Asha finally recovered, but we avoided the Dead Sea from then on...



When we arrived at the Kinneret, there were still questions about the location of the gathering so we camped out and waited until we had final confirmation. Here is Asha with our tent:
