Channeling My Inner Indiana Jones in Petra

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Petra was insanely beautiful and satisfied my love of climbing and exploring. I spent two full days in Petra and could have easily done a third. I don’t think it is possible to see enough of Petra in one day. From the winding Siq that leads to the Treasury, to the hikes up to the Monastery, the High Place of Sacrifice, the Tombs, and even a lesser-known climb up to an overview of the Treasury- it was beautiful. I met some Bedouin children that after trying to sell me rocks, insisted on giving me a few to take back to Obama, I took advice from Bedouins I met on where the best view points are, and I really loved my time there. Below are some of the photos from my visit.

I got stuck in Egypt and never made it to Jordan… Visiting Petra is something I really wanted to do, but know it will have to wait. For now I love that I was able to see it through your experience and photos. Amazing!!!
