Panting, Perspiring and Pimpin' in Petra.

What can I say about Petra? It was really and truly amazing. Huge area and much bigger than I had ever imagined. We walked around the grounds in the killer desert heat for about 9 hours or so... maybe 10, I think i have blocked that parts from my mind. All worth every minute. Just enjoy the pictures and I hope they do it some justice.

Amman to Wadi Musa

Today was the end of camp and the time of our departure with the YMWA volunteers back here to Wadi Musa where we would rejoin the other volunteers for the continuation of this project. Morning activities at the YMWA including clean-up and packing, finishing up various art projects, dancing (of course), meals, and the distribution of projects and gifts that had been purchased during the one-day outing to Aqaba, which has a duty free zone for shopping. One of the staff, Salah is a very accompli...

Wadi Musa, Jordan

After the windiest of windy nights (tent survived tho) we woke at the crack of dawn, packed up our site then headed down the windy road to the Dead Sea for a swim. We had been waiting for this for years. We stripped off, put on the togs and headed down the hill to the sea where we were slowed up by hard, crystallised sharp salt. After tip toeing across this we made it to the waters edge. The water was so warm on the feet. 40 degrees plus in summer however probably about 28 degrees today. We f...

Petra

Early start this morning to check out the ancient ruins of Petra. The whole day was put aside to cruise around the site due to its imense scale. The taxi arrived at 7am and all 24 of us crammed into two taxi vans. We questioned the earliness of the pick up but we were to discover later on that day what a masterful stroke this would turn out to be. After a hell raising ride down to the site we paid our entry fee then cruised in. You are met with approximately 75 guys all trying to sell a 200m ...

Un dia en Petra

Con mucho frío en los huesos, y luego de haber pasado la segunda noche de mala estadía en el hotel Al Anbat I, nos dirigimos hacia Petra. Con muy mal clima, atravesamos la puerta de entrada de este espectáculo de colores y sentidos, en donde me deje llevar por la imaginación, para disfrutar de 8 hs. de aventura por tierras nabateas. Al ingresar a Petra, se vislumbra una pronunciada bajada entre paredes altas, erosionadas por el agua, el viento y los años. Esta caminata que tiene aproximadamen...

Worth the drive!

What an exhausting day. I would suggest if you go to Jordan, you MUST see Petra. However, go in the afternoon and be sure to spend the night. You want to see this place in the cool breeze of the morning. Also, it is beautiful at night and you can buy a 2 day pass for 5 JAD more. The entry fee is 21JAD for one day and 26 for 2 days. Our day started out with our driver being 2 hours late. We made the best of it by watching the marathon runners in front ...

There is no Holy Grail here... but Petra is nice.

... I know I got a decent price.

Another hour hike up the Siq and up the hill after I made it back to the meeting spot about 20 minutes before the coach was to pick us up. Somehow everyone else made it back about 5 minutes late, which we waited extra for. They made it to the Siq view but had to practically run the whole way back and were pretty exhausted afterwards to the point of one girl almost passing out. Luckily there were shops with drinks around for ...

Israel Part II + Jordan

... fortress/retreat built by King Herod which was the sight of a mass suicide of Jewish rebels after it was 'obvious' that the surrouding Roman forces could no longer be fought off. As we ascended the mountain, our personal tour guide appeared winded. It was at this point that he informed us that he had a heart stent put in the week before and had done no strenuous activity since then. He said, in a typical Israeli way, "If you don't see me behind you...don't worry ...

Jordanie : alentours de Madaba, mer morte et Petra

... poser cette question primordiale: je peux y aller en maillot de bain et torse nu sans risquer de me faire lapider? Apparemment oui, d'autres le font. Par contre pour certaines ce sera tout habillé, il y' a des maris moins tolérants. Le problème avec la mer morte c'est que de se baigner dedans est effectivement très amusant mais ca peu faire très mal si un peu de mer morte vous rentre dans les yeux et la mer morte quand elle sèche sur votre peau ...

No donkey halfway

... pushing myself to climb those last 100 stairs when I didn't make it to the gym quite as often as I had hoped I would. Still, donkey or no donkey, monks or no monks, the mysteries of Petra are worth experiencing. I didn't feel cheated that it wasn't really a monastery and I didn't feel that I had been duped into climbing 995 stairs for a few gift shops. Instead, I felt an incredible sense of accomplishment. It was amazing to get ...
