October 2023 we went on a trip to Jordan together with two of our grandchildren. After a 24-hours' delay including one night stayover at Hotel Clarion in Kastrup in Copenhagen, we went via Istanbul to Amman. We drove around by bus and visited many interesting locations, primary in the northern part of Jordan but of course we also visited Petra. Some of our pictures are shown on this home page. Click on the individual pictures, for seeing them in full size. |
