We're planning on going on a Middle East trip - Egypt, Jordan and Israel - in May
! 4 months to wait and we're on the way.
Always wanted to go, for various reasons, but ever thought we would, 'cause we couldn't afford to, but this one is a gift!
My parents have been, and said it was amazing - culturally, historically and spiritually.
My oldest son went to Egypt and Jordan for 2 months. Egypt was a 'just because he wanted to' experience, and Jordan was for an archaeological dig for his undergrad degree - all in all it was an incredible experience.
