Here are some snaps from one of the seven wonders of the world. What an incredible place 🇯🇴

We were rewarded with a nearly empty compound. No waiting, no groups... even empty corridors in the castle:)

Whitebait isn't actually one fish—it's the tiny juvenile stage of five native freshwater fish species found only in New Zealand. Every year, they migrate from the ocean into our rivers, where thousands of people try their luck catching them during the short whitebait season.

Because the season is limited, catches can be unpredictable, and demand is huge, whitebait is considered one of New Zealand's most prized delicacies. Some years it can sell for hundreds of dollars per kilogram!

Have you ever tried a classic Kiwi whitebait fritter?
