| Hadrian's Gate |
We crossed the border from Israel to Jordan just north of the Dead Sea on the Allenby bridge, also known as the King Hussein bridge. A smooth crossing aside from a small incident with Edi's passport. My special entry visa as a New Zealander went without a hitch despite my last name being spelled Blakikie.
We met our new guide, Anton, and driver, Mohammed, and headed off to Jerash. No, I'd never heard of it either. But it was magnificent. Massive.

| Artemis and her consort, he who shall be named 'Dave' |
Hadrian's gate greeted us, along with a small hippodrome and some Roman soldiers and a chariot that went through its paces.
The Temple of Artemis was amazing. Our guide put a fork under a pillar and we saw it moving just from the pressure of a light breeze on the pillar.
