In search of the laughing pools.. day 1

Hashem surprise me. Delight me.

ז חשון You answer us before we even call to you..
Rain in the desert!!! Wow!! The flashes!!

בשם ה' אלוקי ישראל מימיני מיכאל ומשמאלי גבריאל ומלפני אוריאל ומאחורי רפאל ועל ראשי שכינת קל

Pitch dark.. and for a few seconds the world lights up!!!!!!!!!! And then absolute darkness again…

Water so reinvigorating.. and the rain!!

Great skate.. the wind was perfect.. blowing in the right direction… I was going at a great speed.. Sections which I usually don't brake at all.. I needed to brake this time.. so that my speed.. remains under control..(70 kph..)

I had some races with a few trucks.. some I won.. (the red road sign..finish line) some I lost..(blue truck) I was almost winning one with a bus. A few seconds before the finish line.. the bus driver got so annoyed and forced me to get off the road..

Wow! The steep curve.. down to Tzomet Yericho.. is now even more curvy! Due to construction on the road.. the traffic is rerouted to a super downhill curve..

I waited a real long time for a ride.. I declined a few smoker rides.. I got there after sunset… too dark to go in search for the laughing pools. I didn't get to them.. but the great skate.. night swimming in the dead sea. Soft healing mud.. finding my cloths.. delightful refreshing rain.. in the deset.. and the amazing light flashes.. surely made me laugh.. and smile..

Thank You Hashem

And I got a ride back.. right to Simchat Shlomo right in time for a great class
