The world is a dangerous place. So do you want to stay at home. Not me. This trip to Israel included going to Taba crossing. Taba crossing is the border crossing between Israel and the Southern Sinai in Egypt.I went to the Sinai to climb Mt Sinai and visit St Catherine monastery. Its a very popular trip for South Korean Christians. Hordes of them come in huge buses and they are very enthusiastic. I was there February 12th. The terror incident happened on February 16th. A bomb ripped through the bus carrying 34 Korean Christians killing 4 Koreans and their Egyptian driver. They have just arrived at Taba crossing on the Egyptian side after returning from climbing Mt Sinai and visiting St Catherine monastery. Many of them were also seriously hurt. They died worshipping a God they loved. This picture was taken a mile south of Taba crossing. The water of the gulf of Aqaba is the most amazing stretch of water.This part of the Sinai is so beautiful. The terrorists believe they don't need tourism.
