Sorry, Andy, my trip beats yours

The day after our Petra adventure we went to Jerash, the best preserved Roman city in existence. Sorry, Andy, but apparently the best place to see Roman ruins is Jordan, not Italy. You'll have to come out here some time.

There really isn't a whole lot to discuss in regard to the ruins, but we really enjoyed exploring them. Here are some pictures of the specific sites:

This is where they would have chariot races. Our boys raced as well.
And here is the large theatre...
And the ampitheatre where our group danced to bagpipe music with some Jordanian girls...
And the temple...

Is the ampitheatre all made out of stone and rock? I sit carved into a hill or is it just free standing?
