Ausflug ans Meer...2. Tag

Shopping is fun - even small shops seem to be open all the time. Next to our residential building, where we live with 4 Arabic families, there is a school - there seems to be music lessons in the courtyard - and we are woken up with beautiful (loud) children's songs.

On the way to the sea, we walk along many hotels and green-lined streets. The construction boom has been a bit stalled by the Corona. But we are happy that there are hardly any tourists. Jordan is still an insider tip.

There are sometimes small vegetable gardens between the hotels and the footpath on the promenade also goes directly over the construction site - nobody seems to mind.

The mountains, with its 1700m sandstone in the eastern background of Aqaba, look very bizarre and can be seen from anywhere in the city opposite the sea.

Coffee places directly by the water invite you to linger with smoothies and hot drinks. Only if you want to change for swimming, you have a little problem (if you are not at the official beach). The water is mostly turquoise - looks clean and with a bit of courage, you can go into the 20*C warm water. From a distance, you can see that I'm not from here.

Evening get-together - it's nice to stay connected with loved ones at home. It gets cold at night, but we sleep well.
