An Adventurous Weekend

Best weekend yet.  Travelled to Wadi Rum and Petra with the rest of the CIEE students, it was only two days, but we did so much.  However, I could spend so much longer exploring both of these places, I hope I will have time to go back sometime before I leave.

It was so incredible to climb and have an amazing and vast view of God' creation.  We climbed to see the Monastery at Petra, which was beautiful in itself, but then we climbed to the lookout point and spent an hour up there just soaking up the sun (got a sunburn...never thought that would happen in Februrary) and just gazing over the wadi.

It was such a great time to reflect and be in silence and enjoy the majesty of the earth and all that God created.  Love this verse....

"For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods.  In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.  The sea is his, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land." - Psalm 95:3-5
