Jordan River Expedition

Israel shares shores with many countires.  Sharing shores means there are other countries on the other side of the body of water from Israel that has a shore.  Our Jordan River Expedition will involve the shore sharing of many countries that have a shore line in the Red and Great Seas.  For example, some of the other countires are:  Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya, Italy, Tunisia, Malta, Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, Syria, and Lebanon.  Our inland expedition will involve other countires that share the same drainage basin of the Jordan River.  Then there are the geological aspects of where we will be traveling that extend into other countires and regions, so this is just not solely an Israel focus.  With the climate and atmospheric considerations, our trip's focus gets even bigger.  We are Americans, so it should be quite a trip.
