Jordan

I'm very lucky in friendship.  I have so many wonderful friends and a few really special ones.  And some of the things we share apart from living away from our families, is a love a travel.  We also share the misfortune of living in the British weather, so this year we put our heads together and planned an escape!  Though I had been to Jordan before with the family, it made a great girls getaway for a return trip.  You really do have to go pretty far from the UK to get some hot weather in early June.  So with Rachel as our trusty travel planner extraordinaire, Rachel, Trina, Becca, Lindsey and I all headed for a hot pre-summer escape.  It was fabulous!  We spent most of the time relaxing poolside at a resort on the Dead Sea.  Spending time talking, eating and laughing in the sun with these girls was really amazing.  We also took an overnight excursion to Petra and broke the Ramadan fast with Jordanians in Amman at a special Ramadan feast one evening.  Such a great trip, and can't wait for the next one!
