Here we go!
The dropoff point at the start of the trail.

We're not the only ones around

We're on our way
Still at the beginning of the hike...

Puddles
Traces of previous rains.

Get down, get down.

Breakfast!
A light breakfast. Pita bread with Humus and Tea.

A tad more sugar?
Ido with his benzene burner, getting the sugar just right!

The happy camper
:-)

There's something artistic here.
So someone was totally out of focus. Just call it artistic use of the camera...

This is us after breakfast.
Trust food to improve the mood...

The riverbed
There's a nice feeling of space to this picture (I think).

Strike the pose
It's silly, but we can't help it!

Panorama
A nice perspective. In front, the Arava road, behind it a sliver of the Dead Sea and finally the Edom mountains of Jordan. Cool!

Munching away
We weren't the only ones having breakfast.

Spot me if you can!
Check out my camouflage!

What's up with them?

Slow day.
Not too much happening this morning. Let's just enjoy the sun...

Ropes...
You really get a feeling for the height in this one. In the background, Ido with his trademark orange hiking pants.

...and Ladders.
Almost done!
