#VALUE!
When eating and drinking in a vehicle during travel, must one make a blessing for each cup?
One who eats or drinks in a vehicle and made a blessing inside the vehicle may continue to eat and drink without making additional blessings as long as they remain in the vehicle. If one exits for a brief period, the authorities are divided on this matter [Yechaveh Da'at 6, 11].
Should one who sees the sea recite a blessing?
One who sees the Mediterranean Sea recites with Hashem's name and sovereignty "Who made the great sea."
One should only recite a blessing over the Mediterranean Sea if they have not seen it for thirty days.
One who sees the Sea of Galilee (Kinneret) recites with Hashem's name and sovereignty "Who performs the works of creation," but for the Dead Sea one should not recite a blessing, since the Dead Sea was formed after the creation of the world [Chazon Ovadia Berachot, p. 467].
