It's a great chance to get away without a passport. I'm sometimes amazed at how "away" it is, how sheltered from the reality of Israel. If I lived there, it would drive me crazy to be so far from daily life (and pressures), but as a way to release the pressure, it's great and I love seeing the world under the water, a reminder of the amazing things God has created and shared with us. I'm glad you had the time to enjoy, relax. My favorite part of Eilat is breaking with routine. I sleep when I want to sleep; eat when I want to eat and do nothing too strenuous. Eilat is completely about living in the moment - enjoy every minute of it!!!<BR/><BR/>PaulaA Soldier's Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11370218893899121159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-19763009389218816132008-11-16T22:05:00.000+02:002008-11-16T22:05:00.000+02:00Sounds great.
