I know you lived there you have told us several times. But didn't seem to enjoy it very much from your posts.
You must have missed something and if I tell you the good things it will be said that I am bragging .
I loved Jordan for example where I lived in the ME I spent my time riding about the desert and enjoying this dramatic country with its courteous people .
i can't tell you how lovely it is to find a black desert orchid in the morning they only flower for one day .
The beauty of their horses is just incredible .
The ancient sites are memorising full of history it's fantastic .
I loved seeing the Bedouins in their Beit Shar ( tents) I loved walking in the footsteps of TE Lawrence and Glubb Pasha and of course it is the Holy Land chock full of biblical history .
I lived near a town that was famous for being one of the strongholds of Saladddin a very noble and chivalrous leader .
But you know other people will find that boring I try to keep to the subject under discussion .
