When we got to the hotel at Petra, there were welcome drinks and horses we could ride....best hotel ever!

This Jordanian boy just kept telling me about how much he loved Americans

First thing that happened in our hotel room, nice job Erica!

This, if you haven't noticed, is my favorite field trip outfit and because 95% of my pictures come from field trips it must look like I wear it every day...I don't, I promise

First view of the Treasury at Petra

Most beautiful building I've ever seen, carved right out of the rock

tombs along the road to the main part of the city

tombs of the rich people up on the hillside

in front of the palace

With Alyse and Rob on the palace steps

ruins of the Great Temple

The Monastery at Petra, quite a hike but well worth it
