You start out walking through a canyon that opens up to a big area that has the Treasury, which is the tall structure that is seen in Indiana Jones and history books. The city is carved out of the very colorful mountain walls. I've been talking about riding a camel since I've come to the desert and I finally got to do it. The ride was more fun than I thought it would be because the camels kept trying to run and Lina was yelling for the guy to get ours to slow down, it was so funny. We had lunch down in one of the two restaurants in the city and rode the camels back up half way because of the long walk uphill. I'll post many pictures this time!

Oooh, I can hardly look! I'm so insanely jealous!!
Breathtaking in photos so I can only imagine what it was like to see it in person! I'll add Petra to the list of places I'd love to see!
Have fun!!
Incredible John!! Jeff and I just checked out the latest and I am also incredibly jealous. We may need to use some of your inheritance to repeat the great adventure you are on for ourselves. Love you, Mom
I agree with Sharon. The U.S. is unbelievable, but your photos prove that there are things you are seeing and cultures you are learning that many people never even think about. Everyone has said this, but I'm jealous. - JON
