As we drove from Ben Gurion Airport to Sdeh Boker in Be'er Sheva I was struck by the trees I saw growing in the desert. Greenery. In the desert. Just wow.
What also struck me was that Israel, a country with the highest ratio of university degrees to the population in the world, has still not come around to idea of building a simple lip in a shower stall.

We spent three amazing days in Sdeh Boker overlooking the desert. Nothing will ever compare to havdalah in a cistern followed by a three hour moonlit hike in Ein Ovdat. I can't wait to go back.

So I waited a week for pictures of a bathroom. *sigh*
I need time to compose my thoughts and put together something that will reflect my trip. That bathroom killed me.
You've inspired me. I'll post some pictures tonight.
