Amazing Jordan

We spent an incredible week in Jordan during February "White week" when most people go skiing. We were thrilled with Petra, but were surprised that Jerash (a Roman city in the north that was buried in sand for 2000 years and was just dug up in the early 1800's) was just as incredible! We were human corks in the Dead Sea, and I got smeared with black Dead Sea mud, which is supposed to make you look ten years younger. I asked for three layers. We enjoyed the Syrian/Jordanian food, and the people were very friendly. Aaman was a beautiful city, and we wish that we had more time to spend there. We'd recommend a visit there to anyone. It is much more forward thinking than Egypt (and also more expensive) but has a lot to offer as far as history and beauty. We had a GREAT time there!
