Active Travel for the Adventurous Tourist
Nava Zvaig lives in Tel Aviv. Isreal. She has traveled extensively during here life time. This included sleeping in my and Pam's extra bedroom, downstairs. She managed quite well.

Deserts and Wadis are not places to which I normally travel. So, it was great to enjoy her trip through her pictures.

When I looked at the pictures that she posted on-line I was quite taken by the scenery and challenge of her trip to Wadi Mishmar. A Wadi is defined as: "the bed or valley of a stream in regions of southwestern Asia and northern Africa that is usually dry except during the rainy season and that often forms an oasis." (See the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary).

Wadi Mishmar is located by the Dead Sea in the Judean desert which is east of Tel Aviv. I found numerous reports by birding groups that visited this area. However, I don't think that was what Nava had in mind.
Here's the road that leads to the Wadi.

The metal rungs that help individuals climb to the top of the cliff. I wondered, "Who put them there?"
The Dead Sea and Jordan in the distance.
