Wadi Rum
Our first visit on a day we spent mostly in a car was Wadi Rum. Famous for its amazing vistas and links to Lawrence of Arabia we got in a trusty Toyota and headed out. Again it’s a place you have to visit – and my photos aren’t good enough. Might be worth taking a photography course if I even visit again.
[Cheers for Toyota that actually works and doesn’t need to be recalled]
We climbed up a sand dune – Mum did a bit of the way. Ended up with so much sand in my shoes and ran down without falling. We even had a camel ride – I think I like horses better cause my legs are pretty sore after the walking of yesterday. Happy snaps again!
Bedouin Camp
Our final stop for the day was a pretty well set up camp. Tourists can spend the night in a fantastic tent (with shower/toilet) and the clear sky would be pretty special with the stars at night. We were there for lunch which was great and ate way too much.
Was a quick day – we probably spent 6 hours driving everywhere and in Amman at the moment. Got a day here tomorrow and then flying to Cairo in the afternoon. Then I’ll see how I go getting out of Egypt.
Just a quick quirk about our hotel – they have a pretty well set up gym, pool and sauna. Went and had a look and I’m allowed to go in but Mum has to wait till the morning.
