An aerial view of Moslem-occupied West Beirut and the Mediterranean shoreline. Buildings throughout the city have been damaged by shelling during ongoing confrontation between Israeli forces and the Palestine Liberation Organization.

Now sat in an internet cafe in Beiruit after the tour of war torn buildings etc – quite harrowing but good to see if you know what I mean.

Managed to get back into Jordan from Israel without any evidence of being there.  Apart from me saying ‘Hello’ in Israeli to the Syrian border control official with a big gun!!!  Whoops – I was a tad confused with all this arabic and hebrew language I

have been picking up.  In case you don’t know Syrians do not get on with the Israelis and you are not allowed into syria if you have been into Israel.

I loved the dead sea – doesn’t taste too good though as I found out when having a water fight.

Also been to more Roman ruins which are beginning to get a bit tiring after seeing so many.

Now off to the beruit seaside for an ice cream.
