It was a funny thing, but our entry into Jordan was similar to entering Syria. Irish weather.

Rain clouds loomed in with no warning, giving us a good, or at least a bit, of a soaking. So we stopped for the day earlier than planned, making a quick halt at the ancient ruins of Jerash and skirting around Amman, before heading to Madaba via Mount Nebo and a first sighting of the Dead Sea.

Through the mist is Moses' Promised Land, beyond the Dead Sea, from Mount Nebo. 5000 miles from Whyteleafe by our route.

A bit clearer to the south.

After a night in Madaba we press on to the Dead Sea.
