On our second day in Jordan we explored Petra, one of the seven wonders of the world. And a wonder it was! There was a breathtaking view around every corner and it was a magical but exhausting day. We started the morning with our class and our Jordanian tour guide as we walked the mile or so through the siq. The Siq is the narrow gullies that leads to the treasury!
In front of the treasury is where I rode my first camel! It was freaky but so fun and definitely a new adventure.
Then I hiked up to the high place. Oh man oh man. The hike wasn't super long but it was straight up. The heat also got to me. My headaches affect me more than I like to admit most days and I probably shouldn't have attempted to head up to the high place but I did and I made it...barely.
The rest of the day was spent exploring the many sights of Petra and another camel ride. I guess you could say a picture is worth a thousand words so I'll just let the pictures do the talking :)
