Our first-and last, I assume, a Jordanian taxi driver drink coffee, smoke, talk on the phone, driving and shits on the deaths of everything that wiggles around, all at once. It is commendable indeed. Move by which, in a first approximation, is the ugliest city I've seen in my life Amman. In a second, no: ALL cities Jordan I've seen, except very specific parts of Aqaba perhaps, are even uglier.
Jordan, a country whose architecture disastrous 'modern' (to say) end up with the nerves of anyone with minimal aesthetic criteria, the people are friendly, charming children, affordable beer, the meal, the Sensational pistachio, and above and above all, a country that has Petra inside. That alone is worth the trip. Then there is the stroll through the desert in the very Bedouin jeeps destroyed (ah, the beauty of the Land Cruiser Mk. 1: how the hell put up in the hands of these savages?), As the hotels-to- unfaithful comfortable, pleasant and private beach and fitness room with machines smurf-size, and sprinkle swinishness of sludge that after checking that, in effect at the Dead Sea fleet and better, and you give up your ass p'afuera if you put face down. That, as generalities.
concrete being, you know the kind-and-rare (and now more with the decline of the blogosphere) Vladivostok readers that the Central Committee of the Provincial Association of Settlements Cluster plants and gar- with him his Kapellmeister, which matches that I am, have a trip-of-work (wtf?) to infinity and beyond, and this year was Jordan, which is very satisfactory given that MBO had to put brown for the wedding of MBO's-bro '(3rd) held on 04/18/2009. Soit, we went from Easter to Land of Infidels. A non-stop life, gentlemen, a non-stop.
The trip, why deny it, began twisting, if it is true that Zaragotham output was set at the very civilized hour of the 11.30-being also extremely punctual worldwide to the 13.00-our guide, pale countenance, confirmed that our comfortable flight of 17.30 was suspended, and that would be flying ... Finally, when touched, or pieces, or via Sebastopol, Zimbabwe and Frankfurt-am-Main.
was not so serious: just departed at 0445, having previously dined at a suitable location in BCN (Cal Pintxo, in particular), and testicles.
not bore you with detailed accounts, I suspect that the type trip to Jordan is quite similar to ours: we Amman, we went to Mount Nebo and the Crusader fortress of Kerak the next day we visited extensively Petra (which, again, is THE place), our next day was in the desert of Wadi Rum making the dunes cape (if the desert of Lawrence of Arabia , and yes, reread return fragments of contextuantes The Seven Pillars of Wisdom , the outrageous and cruceritos leisure in Aqaba Area gave us for two days and then went to the Dead Sea and finish off in Jerash , impresionantísima, stunning, beautiful, probably the Roman city in better shape than I've ever seen (and remember that one comes from Zaragotham) and Amman (zero interest). Will not bore you, I repeat: all the things mentioned deserve punishment, but especially Petra, Aqaba and Jerash.
is to cite our local guide Mohammed (How not?), An element the most blunt: ah, what affection in his words in relation to the de facto State of Israel and the Palestinian territories invaded by Israel, etc. It reminded me of other situations as a guide Croatian ...
Well, dear, Jordan, that soit dissant Hashemite monarchy (trad .: Theocratic dictatorship) maintain the good order of the street with industrial quantities of police of all kinds, including camouflaged uniform rates M16 command and the latest version. Not a robbery, or apparent discomfort, nothing. At home, however, seems they have left the long hair slicked back, uncut.
Today I talk about books. So much time has passed I have lost count and the reference of things that should be recommended. I only say that it is programming the four bolus tour 'the offspring-not Modes. " And this afternoon I went to the cinema to see 'Let me' (a six and a half out of ten being generous) the same way as last weekend I enjoyed my two UPF's of 'Witch Mountain' (passable, deserve a sietecillo).
