After Petra, we went to Wadi Rum. We had a Bedouin guide, who drove us around the desert all day. Luckily it’s winter so the heat wasn’t bad at all. In fact it was a bit chilly in the shade. We spent the day climbing stuff and enjoying the scenery.

At the end of the day he took us to our campsite where we would stay for the evening. We were the only ones there, so it was pretty quiet.

The number of stars you can see at night in the desert is incredible. We spent the evening eating dinner by the campfire and listening (and sometimes participating) in some Bedouin music.
