How do I start! redface

redface

I've been longing for such a trip for so long... Not only that it was my first time to visit Aqaba, but also that it was with the family, the big family I mean! and that what made it really fun!

It was a one day trip ( Though I never thought it possible blink

blink

) We took off at around 7:00 AM and returned to Amman at around midnight... But it was so fun! The sea was amazing and refreshing, despite the so-called "Abu al-hailaman" unsure

unsure

And here's the flag of the Great Arab revolution... My cousin, when a child, used to think that it was the flag of Aqaba

The flag is much bigger than it looks in the picture...

A stroll in Aqaba streets made me see more and more how beautiful the city is...

Marine crafts!

The food also was great!

I7m, no not irrelevant... But I couldn't resist getting some of these fridge magnets, arn't they the cutest ever?

The pics still fall short of the reality! I really had fun, and discovered new things about the sea, things you can't learn by visiting the dead sea! One of them is that the smell of the sea water is not so pleasant!

Still, The sea is one of the best things one can behold in the world... so beautiful yet so intimidating, so calm and yet full of mystries...
