The waters look very clear -- I would jump in and swim! Norman :)
Another fabulous little page about your time in Jordan. Interesting warning tip about the transportation during the Shabbath time.
Jordan maybe will be in the plan of the next trip... thanks.
That water looks great for snorkelling or diving. Hoping to include Aqaba too after Wadi Rum or Petra.
This crystal blue water is really appealing !
Glad you like Jordan. It is my country. I didnt see any pictures of Amman..havnt you visited?
Looking forward to seeing more of your Aqaba pics, Angela. We visited in February a few years back and Aqaba was gloriously sunny and warm, while Petra was cold and icy - such a contrast in temperatures!
It sounds like the Scottish Highlands where transport is nigh impossible on Sunday, the Sabbath, too.
