Mini vacation

I wish I could do vacations in the states for $30.  I went to Aqaba for the Eid break and it's so nice.  At least it is now that I'm here. 
I rode a bus from Amman to Aqaba.  It is a five hour drive, and was 8 JD.  The families who also rode the bus had a bunch of babies.  They took turns crying for five hours, so that was not fun at all.  Eventually we got here, though, and it was as beautiful as I remembered it.


The area is of course a private beach, away from the city of Aqaba.  Aqaba itself reminds me of a lot of Amman, however, on a much smaller scale.
