Petra

(Look closely and Hannah Banana is leaning back in this photo)

Went to Petra with my English class on Friday. It is about a 2.5 hour drive and twenty students went. For those of you who do not know, Petra is a historical site in Southern Jordan made by the Nabatean people about 2200 years ago. It is an incredible collection of tombs, temples and chiseled caverns, with the main seek (Pathway) running all the way to China. It was a fun time with the class, running, walking and singing through the beautiful landscape. Best of all, I had my friend Hannah Banana, a monkey doll that Emily gave to me, joined me on my journey. I was lucky enough to take some great pictures with her and my buddies. Oh yeah, and for reference Petra is were Indiana Jones was filled and is the place where they found the Holy Grail. I wish someone would have told me that it did actually not exist.
