Floating 4/2/02 Dead Sea

| This is us floating in the Dead Sea.
It was very cool. We walked in up to thighs and you had to sit down or the water would pull you over. We did not have to move our arms or legs, just sit. It was VERY cool!! |

You can see we were able to raise our arms and legs and just float. The sea didn't really feel all that different until we got out. Once we were back on shore you could feel the salt residue on your skin. It felt a little like light oil. The Dead Sea is 33% solid and has 10 times more salt than any other salt sea in the world. It is the lowest point in the world at 440 meters below sea level. |
