Just said goodbye to everyone. The group part of the trip is officially over. Mom and Dad (Ngaire and Ken) were dropped off at the Amman airport today and are on their way home. We (Susan, Doug and I) separated from the rest of the group (David/Mary Elaine, Pat/Ray, Mark/Pam, Ray/Pat) and are at the Kempinski Dead Sea. The rest went on to Amman. Some are leaving tonight and others tomorrow. We are the last to leave. We spent a wonderful evening walking on the beach, playing in the water and covering ourselves in mud. Had a great Thai meal. Tomorrow will lie on the beach for the day. Susan will take in a tour of Bethany. Today, we had one final group tour of Wadi Rum. Great Fun! Will post more later. Jordan was a surprising delight. We couldn't believe we were sitting having drinks tonight looking over the Dead Sea at Israel and Palestine. Incredible. Just a week ago, we pinched ourselves as we landed in Cairo. What lucky people we are to have had this very wonderful trip with such wonderful friends.
