Middle East trip day 5 - Historic Amman to Petra

Today we will tour Amman in the morning then make the 235 km drive to Petra. Stopping at Mt. Nebo. We will have a full day exploring Petra on Wednesday, day 6.

From today's journey:
Breakfast then start tour

Citadel of Amman. Caterpillars everywhere!

Realised that there is tourist police here too just more transparent. Our bus has GPS and the destination is logged with tourist police.


Stood on Mt. Nebo where Moses stood and later died. We could see Caanan and the Dead Sea. A little too cloudy to see Jereuselem.

Stopped at a mosaic store. Employs handicapped persons. Beautiful work.

Driving Now to Petra. Will stop for lunch on the way

Bye Bye Birdie!

Tom was Ed Sullivan in the production this weekend of Bye Bye Birdie!  Kate donned her sock-hop costume from 5th grade to embrace the spirit of the show. For those of you unfamiliar with the musical,  Bye Bye Birdie is set in 1958 and was influenced by Elvis Presley being drafted into the Army in 1957.    Congrats, Tom!!

100 days left

We have just over 100 days left in the UK.  The kids are super excited to get back to the States, and we are too.  We have had a great time here, but look forward to being 'home'. This is the last week of term, and only term 3 left!  The last term supposedly goes fast, as the weather improves, there are Suzuki concerts, the talent show, and lots of field trips. We have some travel still lined up, plus some visitors to join us - looking forward to seeing you, Auntie Sarah and Uncle Aaron!  Stayed tuned for pictures of our last few adventures. We are starting to get the ball rolling on movers and pet shippers and all that fun stuff.  And we have to have the whole flat cleaned once our stuff is out. One step at a time!
