Jerash
This is one of the most well preserved Roman City. We have seen a lot of old cities but most of them are not standing anymore. This was a really cool place to see.
This is where they would have chariot races.I have always loved going to theaters so sitting in the seats of a Roman Theater was so much fun for me. There are two theaters in Jerash. This is the big theater. The acoustics are awesome and some men played the bagpipes and we danced around them on the floor level. It was great!Walking down the main street.This is the stage of the smaller theater. We had some free time so Lisa, Jane, and I did a little exploring and ended up on the stage. No one was around so we decided to dance around and after a few minutes we looked up to find Eric (a friend of ours) watching us. We then proceeded to put on a little show and after it ended with all of us laying dead on the stage we glanced to the top to see 8 more friends watching our spectacular performance. It was a little embarrassing but probably the funnest part of the day!

What a cool city! I still can't get over all of the places you get to see. A little jealous? YES!
