"I am actually about 400 m below sealevel. The lowest point on earth, unbelievable!"
The feeling was euphoria, awesome! I can float!! We (my friends in the same tour group) were all shouting, laughing and enjoying. Lying, floating in the water, with feet up in the air, hehe. Oh, I tried to dip my head into the water, and Oh dear! water gets into my eyes. Its very, very very salty, my eyes felt like burning.
My lips are also burning with pain because my lips were cracked earlier due to all the travelling in the desert..
Bearing the pain, I tried to stay as long as possible in the dead sea, which is about 15 minutes. Whatever, its really a fantastic experience!!!!
I hope I can go again, and this time I will stay longer and do some stunts in the water.
Brief description of Dead Sea:
Dead Sea is in the Jordan Valley and 55 km southeast of Amman. It is one of the most spectacular natural and spiritual landscapes in the whole world. It is the lowest body of water on earth, the lowest point on earth, and the world's richest source of natural salts, hiding wonderful treasures that accumulated throughout thousands of years. It is the lowest point in the world at 394.6 m (1269 ft) below sea level.
