Shephelah, Shephelah! Goliaths Dead!

This Monday we took a field trip to the Shephelah! The Shephelah has 5 Valleys, first we went to the Sorek Valley where the story of Samson happened, so we did a little skit there, that was hilarious!
Pretty much I'm just as strong or stronger than Samson. Just don't cut my hair!

Then we went to the Alah Valley which is where David and Goliath met in battle and young David slew Goliath with a sling and a stone. The brook (with out water now) is still there where David picked up five stones. Then we tried to use slings and it was pretty dangerous, but i did descent if i do say so! ha

Do you see that good form. I could kill Goliath. Just sayin.
Looking out to the Alah and Sorek Valleys 
 Then we went to the Guvrin Valley were there were lots of under ground caves for their wine presses and dove holdings. We also went to the bell caves there which were sweet. The caves were carved out in the shape of bells and they look way freaking cool.

In the Bell Caves
Last we went to the Lachish Valley were you can still see a siege ramp there from when Sennachrib took Lachish. It was a way awesome field trip and was fun to explore around in the caves and the ruins!


We went exploring in tombs and I am a mummy. A good one too!
