Today we were driven an interesting way from Amman to Petra, first stopping at Mount Nebo: “mentioned in the Bible as the place where Moses was granted a view of the Promised Land before his death … provides a panorama of the West Bank across the Jordan River valley …. Jericho is usually visible from the summit, as is Jerusalem on a very clear day“. It wasn’t a clear day for our visit.












We drove further south, to the Dead Sea! We stopped at a resort which offered access to the water, Dead Sea Mud to play with, and a nice lunch buffet.

















After lunch we were driven from the very low -1400ft Dead Sea, to a much higher Petra +2500ft, and the roads we drove on were very impressive!

















Our nice hotel in the city of Petra offered another buffet for dinner, as well as views of the city.
