A Night the Desert Owns

Pick a stretch of the Negev, near Mitzpe Ramon, and let the day slow down before you even arrive. Wander the crater rim at sunset, then find a spot away from any light. Bring one blanket big enough for two and skip the flashlight for a while. Insider tip: the hour before sunrise is colder than midnight, so pack more layers than you think you need. Bring the coffee up top with you.
