Israel
- December 1995
I
guess you can argue 'till your blue in the face as to whether
Israel is in Europe or Asia. Israel is in the Eurovision song
Contest after all. For the purpose of this website I am putting
it here in Asia as I've only got one otherwise! Late in 1995 I
visited the Holyland of Israel with the Winged Fellowship. There
were a group of about 30 of us. We visited Bethlehem, Jerusalem
and Nazareth and sailed over the Sea of Galilee in a boat. To
the right you can see me and Mel (I just happened to go with Mel
to Asia both times) sat by the Dead Sea. In the background of
this picture you can see someone floating in the sea. The salt
content in this sea is the highest in the world and so floating
in it is quite an easy task (so I am told)
