05-Oct-2003 -- Nous avons visité ce point de confluence lors d'un séjour de quatre jours en Jordanie. Nous allions rencontrer quelques amis à `Aqaba. Après avoir consulté le site web, nous savions qu'en atterrissant à `Ammān nous pourrions nous rendre à deux points de confluence en route vers `Aqaba.

Après location d’une voiture à `Ammān nous sommes partis plein sud et en moins d'une heure nous quittions l'autoroute vers notre premier point de confluence. Il fut facile d'accès même en voiture sedan, étant à environ 800 mètres de l'autoroute. Nous avons pris les photos d'usage, et aussi celle d'une structure de métal à quelques mètres du point de confluence. Puis nous sommes partis vers notre prochaine cible: 30N 36E.

05-Oct-2003 -- We visited this confluence during a four day visit to Jordan. We were going there to meet some friends in `Aqaba. Landing in `Ammān and after we looked on the web site we knew that we could try to make two confluences on our way to `Aqaba.

After we rented a town car in `Ammān we drove true south and after less than one hour we left the highway to find the first confluence. It was quite easy even with a town car. It was only 800 m from the highway. We took the necessary pictures including one of a steel piece that was close to the confluence. Then we headed off to our next target: 30N 36E.
