It was already dark when we came back to Amman. In 8 days we had seen Jordan! Very early in the morning (to early for me) it was time to say goodbye to this great country and wonderfull experience. In the afternoon we were back in Amsterdam, time for me to say goodbye to my travel buddy's and go ba…

After missing our flight from Bahrain yesterday we needed to make the most of our time in Jordan.  So it's all about cramming tons of events into one day now...time is not on our side. The plane landed at 930, we stepped out onto the walkway and it was cold!  I swear that the earth is en…

From Amsterdam to Amman and by bus to the south to Aqaba. Back my national plain from Aqaba to Amman and a flight to Amsterdam. Most beautifull sights are for me Wadi Rum desert and Petra. Stunning ! (in Progress!)

El plan del día era algo complejo y llevaba consigo pasar bastantes horas en la carretera. Como íbamos muy justos de tiempo en el viaje, tuvimos que prever nuestra llegada para la noche a la capital de Jordania, Ammán. Y yendo hacia allí queríamos parar en Baalbek para ver los yacimientos arqu…

Because we were flying out early  (I mean 0-dark-30 early)  the next morning, we drove straight back to Amman.  I thought we would have the opportunity to stop at Mount Nebo, another religious site, but that was not to be.  It was already getting late and we still had to pa…

Read any of my blogs and you will know that I am a cynical and hard to impress writer..see if Petra managed it..... here is a hint..I need a good nights sleep and some time to get the 200+ photos into a usable format. I will delete this log entry and add a new one when it is ready.Happy Valentines …

I have been travelling around the Middle East for a couple of weeks now and have finally gotten two days off. What to do, oh what to do? Well for me the no. 1 thing was to get to Petra but I was not sure how to do so, how long it would take, or how much it would cost.   Research show…

We didn't spend a lot of time inside Amman, except in the evening for dinner and to pick up some basic necessities as our luggage did not make the connecting flight from Dubai. It was not an easy task finding a fresh pair of underwear in the middle of the night and a pharmacy for my contacts.During…

Hello Jordan!!  Wow – we love Jordan.  The people here are so friendly.  Baksheesh (tipping) isn’t as big as it is in Egypt and neither is the begging.  The country is beautiful and a lot cleaner than Egypt also.  We left Nuweiba on Sunday on the ferry.  The fe…

Spent a week in Jordan and this time I got to do more touring than usual.

On my day off in Jordan we went to Petra for the day. It's takes about 3 days to see it all. I think I'll have to come back

Yesterday we crossed into Jordan. While the day was painfully slow (waiting for immigration and the ferry across the Gulf of Aqaba), it does feel amazing to now be in a place with such history, in the Arabian peninsular, the very cradle of civilisation. Jordan saw the rise and fall of all the…
