Jordan
After saying goodbye to Israel, we headed to Jordan. Crossing the border was an interesting experience. We weren't allowed to take pictures during the border crossing, which was okay because there was nothing to take pictures of. It was just a little surreal to walk from Israel, showing our exist visas and our passports, etc, into Jordan; again showing our passports. After Masada we were very hot and sweaty, and it was a very hot, short walk (with all our baggage) to cross the border. Surprisingly, most of Israel was very humid. When we got into Jerusalem, it seemed dryer, but it was a stark contrast in Jordan. In Israel there had been a lot of greenery; now we were in a desert. We were hoping to get to the hotel in time to swim in the Red Sea, or at least the pool, but it closed at sunset and we were just a little too late. We still walked on the beach and found a fire dancer performing. Our schedule was fully boo...
