Jerash a Roman city founded by Alexander the Great. They still hold a Jerash festival in the summer where they have festivities including chariot races and gladiator fights. To bad we couldn't have timed it right so that we could have seen the festivities while there.
However, Jerash's ruins were the most impressive that we have seen yet, they were massive!!
The South Gate.

Olivia laying in one of the many stone coffins lying about.
Guess she died happy with that big smile on her face.
