Day 14 Biblelands trip

Day 14 After a fairly stress free border crossing to Jordan we farewelled the lovely Effi and met our new guide Rami and drove through massive granite mountains with lines of dark lava.. quite spectacular.. This area known as the Exodus road. mentioned in1 Kings 9:26/Numbers 33:1 Elah (now known as Aqaba)..
Headed to Wadi Rum (wadi means valley)..many movies filmed here Including Martian, Aladdin, Mummy 2, Lawrence of Arabia, Transformers. We had a fun 4WD jeep ride through the dunes and stunning rock formations, with a traditional Jordanian lunch in a Bedouin camp.
Then we drove along the Kings way.,(mentioned in the Bible several times) to our hotel in Petra. Hot and dusty and very glad of a shower 😁Read more
