Wadi Rum

Today we visited the desert and Wadi Rum, which is lovely – huge sandstone and granite mountains. This is where parts of Lawrence of Arabia was filmed, so that’s very cool. We visited Lawrence’s Spring – a freshwater spring coming out of bare rock – and a cave with early Bedouin painting/graffiti.

The Bedouin theme continued with sage tea taken in a Bedouin tent, before we headed off to our hotel near Petra.
