Eilat, southern ISRAEL

From Wadi Rum I moved one hour south to the port / holiday town of Aqaba. This is where Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the Red Sea meet. As I was so close to Israel, I hopped over and spent today in the lovely Israeli town of Eilat. Real nice vacation town with good restaurants and upmarket stores. Was a nice change from the rural villages and deserts I have been through over the past few weeks.

LATER THIS AFTERNOON
I'm back in Aqaba, southern Jordan and will tomorrow start working my way up north, back to Amman, then the Dead Sea...and further north to Syria.

Salamat from southern Jordan.
