I am very lucky because the day of my birthday was on multicultural day at school, multicultural day at school is when all of us dress up from different countries and present them to the school(it will be in my next post for more details). So because of multicultural day we didn't have lessons, so there was no lessons on my birthday.  But the luckier part was that my mom told me that I am allowed to pick five friends and take them down to the Dead Sea for the day!!! I got so excited so I invited five of my friends to come from school with me to the Dead Sea to celebrate my birthday!



The Dead Sea is a place 40 minutes away from were I live(Amman the capital of Jordan) it is the lowest point on earth and is so much fun.
 
There are swimming pools and beaches, and special mud that is very good for the skin. Lots of people go there for medical reasons as well as just to enjoy the weather, pools and beaches.

You may be thinking why it is called the Dead Sea; well it is called the Dead Sea because it is so salty that there are no animals living in it. A very cool fact about it is that if you swim in the Sea, you FLOAT  because of all the salt in it!
Me and my friends went down with my family and we had a blast.
We first went to the room in the  Hotel and changed into our swimming suits and then we hit the pool.

Watch my video to find out where Jordan lies! And learn what a gulf is.

The holidays are coming up and many people travel during Christmas or other Jordanian celebrations like Eid.

Jordan is a great place to visit and explore. There are many different places that you can visit in Jordan! 

Petra is one of them, and it is one of The New Seven Wonders of the World. It is also so beautiful. It takes about three hours to get there in the car from Amman. You can camp out there or go for a day to explore.

Aqaba is also one great place to visit. Many people go there because it is by the sea--the Red Sea to be precise! There are many pools and lots of different hotels that you can stay in. You can do all kinds of water sports and dive or snorkel. It takes about four hours to get there by car, or you can go by plane!

The Dead Sea is another great place, with a beach and pools and hotels. The Dead Sea is one of the lowest points on earth and the sea itself is so salty you can actually float in the sea. There are so many different and exciting places sorry that I didn't mention them all!







Here is the city Jerash.
