It Can Be Hard To Slow Down In The Busy World
When I reflect on my recent 7 Day Jordan Escape by Globus tour, I don’t think I’ve ever experienced so many BIG attractions and highlights in such a short period of time before. As a small country with ancient stories to tell, Jordan makes it easy to have monumental experiences in a short amount of time. You don’t have to plan, take care of any logistics, or fight through the crowds that normally come with such well-known attractions during high season travel.

ONEKEEPER Vector Evolution – The Best Junior Goalkeeper Gloves for Durability and Comfort
Are you tired of seeing your young goalkeeper’s gloves wear out too quickly? Wondering what makes the ONEKEEPER Vector Evolution so special compared to other junior gloves? Let’s break it down.
Built to Last: Extra Palm Protection
Every parent knows the frustration—your child makes a great save, pushes off the ground with their palms, and suddenly the gloves show rips and damage.
-
The Problem With Palm Damage
On turf especially, friction and ground contact can destroy junior gloves quickly.
-
How Vector Evolution Solves It
These gloves feature an extra protective layer on the palm, specifically designed to prevent tears caused by rough play and ground contact. That means less wear, more durability, and no need to replace gloves every month.
Easy-On, Wide Wrist Entry
One of the biggest struggles kids face with goalkeeper gloves is getting them on and off.
-
V-Shaped Elastic Design
The Vector Evolution solves this with an easy-on, wide entry design. We added a special V-shaped elastic stretch piece on the wrist, making it easier for all hand types to slide into the glove.
-
A Fit for Every Hand
Whether your child has slim wrists or wider hands, this design ensures a comfortable fit for everyone. No more battles just to get the gloves on!
Additional Features That Make a Difference
-
Semi-Pro German Latex for Superior Grip
Unlike most kids’ gloves that use basic foams, the Vector Evolution is built with 3.5mm German Semi-Pro Latex. This latex provides excellent grip and cushioning, giving young keepers a real pro-level feel at a more affordable price.
-
Removable Finger Spines for Flexible Protection
Not every goalkeeper plays the same way, and not every parent wants permanent finger spines. That’s why the Vector Evolution offers removable finger spines. Keep them in for extra protection, or take them out for more flexibility. It’s the perfect way to balance safety and comfort.

Downtown Amman: Wasat Al-Balad
At the bottom of Citadel Hill is Wasat Al-Balad, the oldest part of Amman. Here’s where you can discover real Jordanian life through its old buildings, crumbling archeological ruins by the side of the road, cute cafes and bookstores, fresh produce markets, and stores selling scarves, gold, herbs and spices, fresh juices, and delicious desserts like Kunafeh (goats cheese. topped with wheat and pistachio).

After lunch, we enjoyed sage tea in the pretty gorgeous outdoor seating area shaded by huge trees and fragrant flowers, and shopped in the small stores filled with preserved jars of food, knitted hats and bags, jewelry and other trinkets and souvenirs. These stores are a part of Beit Khairat Souf’s Women’s Community Project created to help women financially support themselves.
The Ancient Roman City of Jerash
One of the best things to do in Jordan is to visit the ancient city of Jerash, considered one of the best-preserved Roman-era cities in the world. Actually, Alexander the Great originally founded Jerash (or Gerasa) as a Greek City in the 4th Century BC.
Unlike other ancient Roman cities, you’ll see little restoration; buildings are as it was during the Roman days (or how it has crumbled since). Contemplate that as you walk around exploring what’s left of cultural centers like temples, theaters, and hippodromes. White Australia has such a short, colonized history that you wouldn’t find a building under 200 years old.
You can still see the Greek inscriptions in the crumbling remains of the façade that once faced the city. About three hundred years later, the Romans took control where it grew to be one of the most impressive Roman cities to ever exist.
Amman Accommodation: Kempinski Hotel
To be honest, I wasn’t expecting such a nice hotel to be part of a tour. Kempinski Hotel was in a great location in Amman’s central business district, the service was outstanding, and the rooms were very comfortable with the biggest and best pillows I’ve ever had. The bathroom towels were gigantic and just as luxurious as the fluffy robe. I couldn’t have wished for a more comfortable bed for the 13 hour sleep I had on my first evening - after 30 hours without it.
Spending 15 minutes each day in the complimentary steam and sauna room in the Spa helped me recover from jet lag. The buffet breakfast and dinners were also delicious and full of Jordanian food. Hotel breakfast and dinner buffets are included in the Globus tour. There are local restaurants within walking distance to the hotel if you want to eat out. You will love having 5 Star accommodation at affordable prices on your Escape by Globus tours.
Return After A Long Week Of Memories
What you do on this final day of your Jordan tour depends on what time you are flying out. Globus will transfer you directly to Amman airport from the Movenpick Resort and Spa.
Hot Tip: My flight was early morning, so I left the resort about 10pm. Had I known how great the Dead Sea Resort and Spa was, I would have delayed my flight until the following day and stayed an extra night and morning.
