It was hard to sleep in ground level room in the Karak Rest House. The wind whistled and howled fiercely all night long. It was so strong, it actually blew our window open. But convenience was the best so far. We parked right outside the front door of the hotel. Dinner was down the hall from our room and Karak, perhaps the best preserved Crusader fort anywhere, was just a few steps across the street from the hotel. Dressed in all our warm gear we visited the fort all the while fighting the wind. Those crusaders were a hardy and brave group.

Windy Karak

That's a spectacular view from the fort! One really gets the idea that it's high above the valley in the background. Hope there are other's like this!
ReplyDeleteMany photos. Too many. But have no fear we will cull cull cull.
