It took us almost two hours by bus to arrive at the salt mine. After we arrived we had a picnic lunch and then went to the tunnel that connects to a video room that gave us the history of the salt mine in this area. After that, we went on a small train deep into the mine which took about ten minutes to travel several kilometers. When we got off, the air was full of the smell of sulphur. After we investigated the mine we came back on the small train. The trip was fun and we also learned more about Chemistry, which I loved! By the time we arrived back at the boarding house we were all very tired but happy that we found out more about mining salt. (Carmiel Z. G7)
