The clock in the square is well worth seeing at midday in Messina 🙂

Am in Rhodes, Greece...beautiful and laid back! Got a mani/pedi and now I'm getting a foot massage...so relaxing!

 

While I have free fast wifi I'll try to post some pics from Petra, Luxor and Israel.  Notice the Egyptian policeman sleeping in his car...great security! We got a chuckle about that. The mummy is some pharaoh.

Er.  Sleeping policeman is in Jordan.

One of my favorites ports. Did it two times rode mule/donkey up one time and another down. Love the bright blue and white but did not see you post one of the buildings

 I didn’t see a response to your question, so I will chime in.  Petra is done from Aqaba, Jordan.

If you're talking about my picture of a sleeping policeman, it was NOT in Jordan...it was in Luxor, Egypt. The very next picture I took was the front of the police station where he was parked and the sign said "Ministry of Interior...Luxor Security Director...El Ashi Check Point".

 

I've been trying to download the actual picture of the sign but the Cruise Critic website won't let me.

Sorry, I missed that. This cruise is becoming so port intensive that I can't keep up with CC. Then add to that our very slow internet and my roommate and I have to share one internet connection, so keeping up with this thread has gotten difficult. Thanks for answering that for me! 👍

[jwindham]

Thank you both for the information on Jordan. I figured it was Jordan but did not know the actual port name of Aqaba. Julia
