Day in Petra, I could have easily spent another exploring more cave temples and rooms. The site was significantly more expansive than I imagined.

Being in Wadi Rum was like landing on the surface of mars. We took a tour via SUV w/ a guide and hit up those tourist photo op stops… Plenty of scrambling up rocks and sand dunes and trying to photograph the vast red-ness of the whole place. 

We stayed at a “bedouin camp” which was essentially glamping for Western Tourists in permanent tents with comfy beds. The clear night sky showed had the best star watching I’ve ever experienced.
