Just one of those things you never really think about, I guess. <br /><br />Did rubbing the mud on the painful spots help at all?Vanessence7https://www.blogger.com/profile/01646810098972114169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021560750371071992.post-29518858956155652582018-04-05T08:01:39.056-05:002018-04-05T08:01:39.056-05:00Beth,

Opinions vary as to the cause but when we were there in 2016, we were shown a line WAY up from the current water line where the water used to be . . .and it is no longer - it was actually shocking! I know that the resorts along the water are not near the water anymore and guests have a long walk to reach water's edge.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00181034688965864601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021560750371071992.post-58186753630010305122018-04-05T07:54:25.839-05:002018-04-05T07:54:25.839-05:00So glad you decided to float this time!

I have gone swimming in the Great Salt Lake here in the USA . . . a similar experience, but not as exciting as a visit to Israel.Marcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00336729074703850201noreply@blogger.com
