For all those unfamiliar with the Muslim religion and their countries, the call for prayers can be quite a shock. Although I was semi aware, the shock at around 5am on our first morning in Jordan was similar to someone coming into the room and pressing play to AC/DC at full volume right up to your ear.

Syria
I'm afraid we only had 8 days in Jordan. As always I wish we had more. I have another trip in two months to either Turkey or Greece. Not sure. For some reason though, I now have a weird fascination of the Middle East & North Africa.

Apparently Syria is a real gem, or so a number of folks on TravelBlog have told me. Getting the visa is a real pain though. I will fly to Turkey and hope to get the visa at the Syrian border, because getting it from a consulate seems the more complicated way. I hear, you can get it at the border if you have an Irish passport. Otherwise, I will just stay in Turkey. Either way, I will get to see more of the world.

I read about your struggle with your audio guide, and so sorry to hear about that, the thing is that the digital card you had , has 2sides , one is English , the other is russion , so if you want to hear narration in English u need to use the English side , unfortunatly it seems u used the Russian side.
