Jordan

Jerash - After a messy border crossing, we saw the Roman ruins of Jerash. Fun, old ruins.

Amman - We spent a night in Amman where we had easy access to a nearby Carrefour. Carrefour had Dr Pepper and Speed Stick. Exactly what the doctor ordered.

Petra - Petra was a really cool place to spend a day. I enjoyed seeing the Treasury and climbing up atop the Monastery. It was also fun to see T.E. Lawrence’s old stomping grounds at Wadi Rum.

Your notes on the Middle East excursions bring back strong memories of the sites, sounds, and smells that I love from my visit there. I was transported as I read even your brief descriptions. Strange to think I have been almost each one of those places - it seems such a long time ago.
