Wadi Rum was in the middle of nowhere in Jordan. It was amazing! We stayed at another Bedouin camp. When we arrived (we had rented a car), we tried to go out in the sand, but of course, we got stuck. These nice Jordanians laughed at us and helped us out and we decided not to give it another shot. We drove in circles around the town, while the manager kept sending us voice messages. The voice messages were things like: “I see your car, come back, come back” or “that’s you, come back, come back” and “come back, come back”. He also said “I am waiting, come back, come back”. We finally found him and we put all our luggage in the back of a Toyota truck. We had a super fun and scenic drive through the dessert with huge boulders everywhere! 
When we got there, we went up to see the sun set on the top of a rock, it was so beautiful! Elise and I had so much fun making Inukshuks out of the rocks at the top of the mountain. That night we went to the tea tent and we hung out before going to dinner. Dinner was delicious, there was hummus, vegetables, pita bread, salads, baba ganoush, Jordanian desserts and chicken that was cooked under the ground. After dinner, we went back to the tea tent and played a card game. 
The next day, we went on a tour around Wadi Rum. First, we went for a hike on the rocks and to the spring, and had a beautiful view of the area. 
Then, we went to the sand dunes and did a redo of a picture in Mui ne in the sand dunes and took some interesting illusion pictures.

Wadi Rum
After the sand dunes, we went to a nice little place for a picnic lunch. The driver made a fire, cooked delicious chili, baba ganoush, pita bread and cookies. 
After lunch, we went to the small arch (which we did not find scary at the time) an took some pictures. My hat blew of because the wind was so strong. We went to go get my hat and the driver told us a sad story of 25 year old girl who fell of the arch and died. That made us all petrified. We went to the drivers wife’s house and she had two girls there with her. We had tea and played outside a little bit with the kids.
After that, the driver dropped us of in the middle of nowhere and told us to walk through the sand for 20 minutes. We then drove to the big arch. The big arch was around 20-30meters high. Wadi Rum is so windy that we almost said we were not going to go on the arch. When we got to the top it was so high. My mom was the one to take the picture because apparently she wanted my dad to be in a photo for once (we all thought it was because she was too scared though). The next day we had to leave! We took a 3 hour drive to the airport in Ammon, next stop EGYPT!!! The place I never expected to go to…
