Today we woke up at 4:00am local time, climbed the "snake trail" of Masada at dawn, and then explored the ruins of Masada for what felt like the entire day. However it was 09:30 after our extensive trek and tour so we went to the Dead Sea and hung out in in the water until lunch time.
Roman-made "mountain (ramp)," two-years in the making used for final siege, after which the Masada zealots killed themselves rather than becoming slaves.

Sitting on the Dead Sea
When the temperature crossed 110 degrees F, we retreated indoors. Our clothing and bathing suits dried in under three minutes hanging outside.
Tomorrow we plan to hike the oasis in Ein Gedi.
