  • One of the most dangerous things that you'll find in Petra is the child bearing half dinar rocks. They're such professionals at grabbing your heart and convincing you that you need to buy this particular rock instead of one that you could just pick up off of the ground. But,I figured that I was helping contribute to their economy...I call the picture of the girl, 'Dirty Feet Girl' as she had the dirtiest little feet.

     Well, 2 years later, the country is as safe as before but the tourism still hasn't picked up, if you get up early enough, you still have Petra just for yourself!!
