Cameron and I left Dahab and headed to Jordan to explore Petra (an ancient city carved from the sides of mountians). We decided to go through Israel and basically took buses or taxi's to each border and walked through. After a 2 hour drive from Jordan's border we made it to Wadi Musa, had a kebab and went to bed ready for an early morning. Spent the next day in Petra and it was incredible. These buildings and tombs carved right out of the mountian was amazing and almost surreal. We took a 45 min. climb up to the Monestary which was at about 3300 ft. and had a view over the mountians that was amazing.

After attempts to get to the Dead Sea failed we returned to Dahab to retrieve the rest of our belongings, staying one night in our old house and then off to Cairo.
