Ancient Synagogue at Ein Gedi

Today was a free day and all activities were cancelled. I was on a mission to get a chance to see this famous synagogue I had heard about the afternoon before from our kibbutz tour guide, Daniela. She had said her husband Yudah could give us a special tour if we had time. So we went to the gift shop were she worked and she arranged for her husband Yudah to even come and pick us up. Dee and I and four other people got a special treat of getting to see this ancient synagogue from around 100 A.D. This synagogue has beautiful original mosaic tile floors. Yudah is also the palm date farm manager. Yudah and Daniela have raised 8 children living on the kibbutz.
